Jane came to Kansas from KY in a covered wagon
when she was 4. There were still Indians roaming the countryside
& they often stopped & asked for food. One time an Indian
woman wanted to trade for Sarah Jane! Jane attended Salt Creek
School.
In her later years, she was a very
small woman with steel gray hair in a bun on top of her head. She
almost always had a long bib apron pinned to her dress. She had hundreds
of flowers & loved roses especially. She had a large garden and
canned. She also did sewing for family & neighbors. She
was still making quilts when she died at age 96.
George and Jane lived in Cherryvale, KS when they
were first married but in 1899 Jane’s dad bought a small house east of
Brooks Station, KS and deeded it and a few acres to them. They lived
there the rest of their lives. Both of them loved to sing.
