Jack and Frank, I can very much understand the importance of this story. My dad saved the family farm during the 1930's long enough so that when he was finally forced to sell, nobody else would bid on it, and my dad's brother got it for $1. However, because my dad's mother did not get along with my mother, my dad (our family) was left with nothing. My dad had to start over at another farm a mile east. My dad seldom mentioned it but us kids suffered, being poor when my cousins were doing quite nicely. I never even got to know some of my cousins. To this day, I suffer from this injustice. For years I was angry with my dad, because he was badly affected by this. Thankfully, now I see my dad and mother for the heroic figures they were. Wish you all the best in this.
