Children

General Notes: Husband - George M. Slear


In the White Springs school, he began his education, and because his privileges in that direction were rather limited, as an adult he earnestly advocated better educational advantages for the young. With the primitive implements used in his early years farm labor was much more arduous, and as soon as old enough he began to aid in the work. As the family was large, and his services were not always needed at home, he worked for neighboring farmers during his boyhood and youth. For some time after reaching manhood he continued to work for wages, mostly for his father, but he later purchased his own farm from his father's estate.
