HARY EDill GALLEGOS :., .; Har'j Zdna Gallegos was born in Pagosa Springs ' Colorado, Februar:r 25,:. 1-91-2-, the oldest child of Tobias Trujillo and Sarah C-:oreno) '.2:ru- jillo. Tobias was a farmer when he died in 1916. Edna was only 4 years .:-old: and· hardly remembers her dad. Her mother later ;1arried Everisto Garcia • 11 • Hy step-dad," Edna says, trwas a very good man. He trE:ated me really well. 1'1y younger sisters a,.-id one brother are still livi::-1g. Mary lives in Los Angelos~ Dolores in Blanco, Rose in Plymouth, Calif., and Ray in Albuquerque • 11 • ~ ."I-went to school in Lonetree (about 10 miles north of Pagosa June:·-ti on, on Ca. t Creek Road) • · Tr1.a t is dryland country, but in those days web.ad plenty of rain for hay and for crops. The wild ·grass wa:·s_so~ tall it would brush your feet when you rode a horse •. We used. to . knot necklaces from a particular variety of tough grass there. I wonder if it still grows there. The clina te has changed so rmch. ;: · .About 1922 Edna I s family moved ·to 1-fancos for 2 years then ca.::e: back to -purango. · · 1 ' Myf step..:.dad· worked at the smelter where they processed the ores from_- Sil vert_on. . I enjoyed lfving in Durango, but it didn I t last very long. 1'.'hen my mother died, I .went to -live with my aunt in Ignacio, I·staye~ with he± two y~ar& tintil I ias marred at the_age of 15 . .Aurelio Ga1l'egos and I got r:,,ar':ried in 1 927. Fer 15 iears. we lived on the far!'.l at Caracas by the San .Tuan River- just below the :-reT...r ?,:exico · State:Line.: There w~s no bridge across the river. _We f6rded it with a wag~n to buy supplies at Pagosa Junction. If the river was too high we__ c:rossed '.•ii th pack horses.· Sorr.eti.!;).es I staye~ hor:!.e for 3 2onths. Qfte.n ..:the· river was so high in !fay, June and July frcri. the spring :sel t, that w~,wer~ ·isolated. :~-re- had a log house on a rise above the river~ Aurelia raised alfalfa on the river botto~ · and grain on a fla~ place we call~d the 11alcon 11 • - WJ1enever we needed fuel we took our r1agon up on -Caracas Eesa. T.-ife had a perm1 t to haul.. all the wood we needed--f er -our -_p erso.n.al us-e. In the su:r.mel' and fall we took our wag en up on the -~esa to'p into the woods and enjoyed the views and. the peaceful feeling of th_e b_ac}{ ~ot1ntry~ So:::ietimes we _cot.4d watch the herds of beautiful wild hbr~~s which roamed the canyons artd mesas at that ti~e. Befcre . the winter 'we always had enough wood to last till the next sunr1er. '-:l~ g!~W --~e?t:rly.:all our food. Our irrigation sµ-stem \\,·as fro:J our well, sim.pl~ but :·effective. ~-!e p1,rlled up buckets of water with. a rope and _P?~l-ey" ~i)d,_ ~r-i,pt=i;.ed_ them into a sel'ies of trenches which ran do•.,m the - rm,s o,r·_ the garden. -This ·wa,s a lot easier than hauling buckets around the garden.; · We roasted our blue ·corn ·and had it ground at Allison, enough for us and some to sell. 'lie put away 200 lbs. of white peas and all !i:inds of chilies and vegetables. We used kerosene la~ps and a wo6d-b~fning cookstoie. Our cellar kept nur cream and eggs cool in ·surnn.er and kept cur produc_e from freezing in winter. 1.'!e never had :~electricity and never miBsed it. You Id be surprized how few worries we had. No utility bills to pay. Ho food bills. We were sure of everything. I was never bored and never lonely. I always liked the quiet places. 11 . • : ~Aurelia and I had 4 children. 'Roger now lives in Ogden, Utah, Sar~b in Newaik, Calif., Abe in Farmington and Lillie in Bayfield. The klds ~~ftt ~bout 3 miles ~ o school. If we needed to travel any furthe~ than the \ alley, we crossed the river and waited for the train, 1 I \ • �If we needed to go shop.ping. or go to the doctor, ·:-re took the train to Durango. It arrived from .Alamo·sa ev-ery day at 1 : 30 P.H. and would get to Durango in about 2 hours. In winter it was someti□es delayed:· f_or long periods .because ·of snow on· the pa-sses. One way to Durango__ cost $2)+5. 11 · . _ .. · • ·11In 1 942 1•ie moved to .Jack Dickinson's irrigated farm a,cross th~ · river in Color&d,.o, where we stayed 5 y e~rs. From 1947-49. we· liyed n Durango. \-Ihen Aurelids · 1-~om died in 1949, we moved bac.lc to Caracas . . where we stayed until _1 964 .- Trat year we moved -t o I gna-cio and_ I. 1 ve been here ever since. 11 .

Genevieve Pena ~as born January 23, 1913, at Pagosa Junetioc, Colo. rado,one of the ch.11.drec of Juan Pena and ~.ary Baker Pena. ~.ary ~a~ a Ute and vas considered a highly educated person in her day since she had fi.!'.isncd the 12tn grade at Haskell Institute 1n Kansas. "}(..y grandparents, 11 Genevieve says, 11 knev they had a gem of a person 1n 'flIY ~other. They loved and valued her highly, My father, who ~as a member of the San Juan Pueblo near Espanola, N.M., ca.r::e into this country herding sheep • .._,nen Dad vanted to .marry Hother,her parents and grandparents discussed it a long time, finally deciding Juan was ·ind~strious and good tor the fa.!lll.y. Dad offered to pay for Mother, but ·appare~tl7, he had nothil:g •hich they considered valuable enough as a dovry. After :cuch thought ~he cider Eakers set this condition. If Dad vould w·o:-k for the fa:=..ily 2 yea.rs vi~hout pay, he could :c:ia.rry Mother. He agreed to this and was never sorry. 11 "When I was born, 11 Genevieve says, "the area around Pagosa Junction was not al=ost e~pty as it is today. The river valley and all the canyons leading up onto the ~esas were fuli of people. You should have seen the people pour out of the canyons when there was a wedding or a celebration. There vere about 20 houses in to1m, a train station, a church, a hotel Vith a restaurant, a school and 2 stores, one run by the Go~ez fe.mily and the other by Walter Ziebriski, Both stores had good selections of general ~erchandise. Ziebriski ::a.de quite a stir when he put a hand operated gasoline pump out in ~rent of his store. Since Ziebriski spoke E~glish with a heavy accent~ I could never understand one ~ord he said, but Dad could. I would listen to their conversations and as soon as we left ask father, 1·;rna t did he say?' 11 . "The train was the lifeline of our tovn. We vere a switching point on the :i:.a.in Ala.::.osa-Durango line for the b::-anch to Pagosa S-prings. T.c.s.trs -h7 ~e neened a ~otel. Th~ schenules didn't always =a.tch, so the people co~bg fro~ or going to Pagosa vere often caught bet~een trains and needed a place to spend t~e night. 'rnis gave us a gli=pse of the outside world, for so=e of tte traveling people were d.resse~ real fancy. We ad::ired then as ~~e7 val.ked up and do-wn the street 1n the evFnings. Tbe little girls w-a.tching then wouid say, 'This 1s our New York 1 • We were prpud of the hotel. It had everything but an indoor toilet. 11 . When it was ti.!:e for us to go to school, Dad got a place right in to-wn. Dad kept far-,-1ng and vas a good farner. I can still picture hi?:t planning his work and keeping bis accounts 1n a sma.l.l tablet. Be would look through it and say, 1 I owe so-and-so 2 days of vork; 1 or 1 So-andso·owes I?:.e a la!:lb this spring 1 • 11 · ·n1 was so glad when I finished 6th grade. That was al.l the school I wnted, but I vas sent to the Boarding School at Santa Fe to continue 1:IY·education. Wnat a scary trip that was. I had ridden trains before, but never away from oy parents and never so far away from ho~e. A bunch of"us were11 loaded on the train for .Antonito where ve suent the first night.· I 0 sure we all stuck out like sore thumbs, so- curious and always s~y-1.ng, 'Look at this~ 1 or 'Look at that!' The next day we got onto another train which took us south to Santa Fe." · · ''Every su!l::Iu.er I ca..tl.e ho:ne. The warm season was a busy time because ·,nr dried and canned md stored up al.l the food we needed for the winter ... No one was lazy. No one seet1ed to mind hard work. They would get going an~ get it done. Every- year ve vent CB.!llping to pick fruit and berries s~·many kinds, I don't re~ewber them all. Of course, there vere chokecherries and the Buvfaloberries. The river bottom near Sky Ute Downs used to be thick vith Bu!!aloberries. We found that some o.r the I i �;· . . .,,i. ~ 9 7 3 " I 3. / bllshe~ produced sveet, Juicy 'berries vhile others nearby vere sour. The /;I/ location of those bushes vas a !a:rl.ly secret. 11 -:--~ "ill or us l!.ked dances. 'l'"ney verA held outside 1n good vea the.r.:.. "Ir J it was cold or w~t, Felix Go=.ez let us use his ba=n. ill of us got _t/ together to decorate 1 t till it didn't even lock like a 'barn. '.;"e_.s.a ved alJ. our 'bright paper for paper chains and other decorations. You.rig and old cane V1th their lanterns. The old people vere treated very respectful.ly, even if they dic.n't dance, for they ~ere the good fiddle players. We went fro~ one to a..~otcer, a sk..:bg tbe~ if ttey would play for us. ~qen they got tired and went ho=e, the cia!lce ·.as over. 11 "On Saint Days there vere horse races and foot races. I once _von ·a length or cloth in a race. It was a welco=e prize. ?eople locked f~rward to t:he colebrations and the contests • .:...S the ti=e enuroac!Ed v.e engaged iri r:.u i~h speculation.

We a.1....·ays ca.=.~ed near the- agency close to the p:rese:it site or the Eear Dan.ce Gro~ds fo~ several days. l{otter vas ctosen because she knew the na::-.es of all t:..e tribal ::.e=.bes. She rode 1n a car "rlth ~-o :. armed guards fro~ the B.I.A. ~!lo kept betveen then a huge sack of silver noney. None of the Indians wa11ted checks or paper ~onay. They didn't . trust it. ~acb tribal ~e~ber was given a cup of silver =o~ey, large cups for adults, s~a.11 ones for cb.ilc=e:i. I~e =o~ey wasn 1 t counted e.x.ac~. _ It vas· ~erely dip?ed i~to the sack and 1:::J.to t~e =e!l 1 S hats.

The walk in the cold winter ,.,-;....nd fro~ t~e depot up to the agency gave ter fatal pneur::onie._'1 W.aen I finished ill. gh school, there wes nothing to keep me .in Pagosa .

Going to Ignacio on the train was a once a _year treat. In August Dad would say, 1 I think it's ti.::e to go buy shoes -arid other things girls ~,d boys need. 1 Thell:la and I would get so excited .· Just thinking about the trip. 11 . _ . "Today the river has ea ted avay r:ruch of the lc11 d vhich used to oeiong to the town.

() . • I,/ J1 ~- @-~;-~Cej !"l/3:7 - 1:-~~~ / I I ! 'I I i ! Cc,)'~ �~ /97 r1 JOHN & DOROTHY OLBERT john Phillip Olbert's father, John Olbert was born in S1.mheimbaden, Germany in 1865. He migrated with his parents to Illinois in 1879 .. "My Dad often told me how hard 11fe was in Germany for the common people, 11 John Phillip remembers. 11 People like my ancestors who had no land couldn't get any. However, the harsh military rule bothered them as much as the land shortage. As soon as a son was old enough to be useful to the family, he was drafted for several years into the army. So they Cal!l.e here wanting land and less government control of their lives.· The family farmed in Illinois for se~eral years. John. left home when he was 21 and went to work for the Pullman Company in St. Louis. After a couple of years, he ca.me on west, stopping in Colorado. Pueblo was booming as a smelting and railroad center. Dad got a job helping to build the rail line over Marshall Pass from Salida to Gunnison. _He worked a mule team skidding logs to build snowsheds to divert avalanches over tha tracks. John settled in Telluride for the Yinter and acquired an unexpected job. He had done quite a variety of jobs,'but never expected to be a nurse. The smallpox epidemic which broke out among the miners did not a:ffect John, since he had been vaccinated in Germany. So many of the miners were either deathly sick or weak during recovery, that Dad was recruited as a Doctor•s helper. While in the area he became friends of George West and Bob Hott. They began hearing tales of all the gold that could be panned out of the sand bars of the Colorado River. One summer they gave it a good try, but no one got rich. Dad took off en bis own to see the Navajo country and arrived back in Durango in 1889 when he was 24. He homesteaded at Thompson Park for a year, then moved into Durango to work at a local brewery located just north of the old High School and just east of City Market. When Dad was 31 years old he married Margretha Geisler. My mother, who was 1~ years younger than Dad,was working in Durango and living with her sister, Mrs. Spcnsel. Hy parents lived 1n Durango until 1915 when they bought a farm near Oxford." J'•hn fh1111p was 12 when his parents moved to the farm t mile vest ot Oxford. 11 Moving from a city school with graded classrooms to a one room school with grades 1-8 was quite a change for me. I'll never forget the first day there. Mr. Crosby, the teacher left for a while to check on his wife who was expecting a baby soon. While he was gone, some of the rowdy boys knocked the stovepipe down. This resulted in a thorough sooting of the room. Crosby questioned each of us to learn who was guilty. I was telling the truth when I said I didn't know, because I did not know anybody's name that day. 11 "Dad used about half his land for grain crops and the rest for ·bay and pasture. Every farmer in those days had chickens, turkeys, and a bunch of milk cows. It was common to see 20-25 five gallon cream cans on the railroad platform. Part went to Durango. The rest vas sold to Alamosa or Colorado Springs for better prices. Even 2¢-3¢ more per pound was a help." John Phillip and his brother Ernest went together to buy a new a928 Chevrolet from Rockers in Durango. It cost $600 .00 which they paid in eash after selling some cattle. This was not the first car 1n the family. Their Dad had owned a 1914 Buick and a 1924 Ford Pickup which cost $400.00. John Ph1.1 11p, his Mom and Dad, went to California in the Pickup in 1928. They were really squeezed into the cab but made it. Gas was about $.17 per gallon that year . ,, .... �3. .. In the late 1920 1 s J"ohn Phillip was still not married, but decided to buUd a log house for himself. He cut and hauled logs l6 or 7 per trip) by team and wagon from the hills near Vallecito and cut his own shingles. The house wasn•t quite finished vhen John met Dorothy Billings, the uev School teacher at Oxi'ord. Dorothy was born near Hermosa north or Durango on February 21, 1911. Her Dad, Edrln Booth Billings, was a native of Jaynesville, Wisconsin. Her mother, Myrtle ll,.ay Williams was born in Iowa. 1-fyTtle 's family settled near Windsor, Colorado, in 1890, later migrating in covered wagons to the Animas Valley via the San Luis Valley, Creede, Lake City and over the pass to Silverton. "My parents were truck .farmers north of Durango, 11 Dorothy says. 11 1 vent to Trimble School until I finished 10th grade and graduated from Durango High School in 192511 Dorothy took two years of teacher Training at Ft. Lewis College and came right to work at Oxford for one year andthe following year &t Trimble School. John and Dorothy were married in 1931. Until their 1og house was finished, they lived 1n the Kennedy house a q~arte~ mile vest of Oxford. So many young couples started their lives in this house, it came to be known as the bridal suite of Ox.ford. The Olberts have 3 sons, each of whom is married and has two children. Phillip, the oldest, lives in Boulder. J"ohn Richard, usually called 11 Dick 11 , lives in Palos Verdes, California. Donny is a Lt. Commander in the Navy at San Diego. J"ohn 1 s father died in 1931. Those were hard years for everyone and the Olberts were no exception. Prices for ra.I'!!I products were low and the area suffered a bad dry spell 1n 1934, but they worked bard and were able to keep their land. When the movement began to unify the Allison, Axboles, Ignacio and Oxford School Districts in 1948-1+9, John vas on the schooJ.. boara. He: listened to all the argw!lents and got several good cussings when he supported the consolidation. Though he was aware of the drawbacks and the loss of community spirit when small towns lose their grade schools, John remembered how much he had wanted to finish high school and could not at Oxford. For the sake of others who would need a high school_education, he made a decision which was not too popular. J"ohn has been secretary of the Pine River Irrigation District since 1966. He still keeps the necessary papers in the original leather satchel given to the District by Morrill Turner when it was organized in 1936. John and Dorothy have been involved in a lot of hard work during the 47 years of their married lives, but they also know how to relax. They love to tr~vel and especially like to go to Coos Bay, Oregon, get on a charter fishing boat and hook the big salmon. They also like to visit their children, but after a few days in Los Angelos and San Diego they are ready to come back to the farm. John can look out from his house to a spot half a mile to the northeast which the old timers said was a favorite ca.mp site on the old Spanish Trail from Santa Fe to Durango. Like most people who have lived in one place for a long time, the Olberts value their memories and have many links with the past.

Persons wishing to die in dignity and not be kept "alive" with -extraordinary measures when there is no serious hope of recovery should make an advance decision to this effect, not only to assure their wishes being carried out but to protect their doctors and nurs e s from possible legal action and to avoid leaving their survivors with a sense of guilt. To help people do this, The Euthanasia Educational Fund, 250 W. 57th St., N.Y.C. 10019 has prepared. a ''Living Will" vhich reads as .follovs: A LIVING WILL To my family, my physician, my lawyer, my clergyman To any medical facility in whose care I happen to be To any individual who may become responsible for my health, welfare or affairs , Death is as much a reality as birth, growth, maturity and old age - it is the one certainty of life. If the time comes when I can no longer take part in decisions for my own future, let this statement stand as an expression of my wishes, while I am still of s ound mind. If the situation should arise in ~hich there 1s no reasonable expectation of my recovery from physical or mental disability, I request that I be allowed to die and not be kept alive by artificial means or "heroic measures.u I do not fear death itsel.f as much as the indigni t ies of deterioration, dependence and hopeless pain. I, therefore, ask that medication be mercifully ad.ministered to me to alleviate suffering even through this may hasten the moment of death. This request is made after careful consideration. I hope you who cue for me will feel morally bound to follow its mandate. I recognize that this appears to place a heavy responsibility upon you, but it is with the intention of relieving -you of such responsibility and of placing it upon myself in accofdance with my strong convictions, that this statement is made. Signed._ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ __ ------------------ Date W1 t n es s e d by: TO MAKE BEST USE OF YOUR LIVING WILL: 1) Sign and date before two witnesses. This is to insure that you signed of your O'Wll free Will and not under. any pressure . 2) Give your doctor a copy for your medical file and make sure he i s in agr eement . Bear i n mind t hat t he l iving Will is not a l egal document . 3) Give copies to t hose mos t l ikely to be concerned. Note their names at the bottom of your copy. Keep the origi nal r eadily available . 4) Discuss your i ntentions with those cl osest to you NOW. This is very i mportant. 5) Glance over your living Will once a year; r e -date it and initial the new date t o make i t clear that you have_not changed your mind . � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The remainder they sold or gave away to their friends in Abiquiu, New Mexico, for they were about to start a long trip to the north. It was the year 1900 when Jose and his wife heard about the opportunities developing in the San Juan Valley near the Colorado line. They talked it over and decided to go there. Settling near Rosa, they bought some land and opened a general store and blacksmith shop. At first they ~~re in partnership with Jose•s brother-in-law. Later each man owned his own store. By 1910 when Epimenio and his twin sister were born, (the youngest of 11 children) the family was well established at Rosa. Epimenio says, "My twin sister died when I was, months old and then my mother died when I was one year and three months old. One of our neighbors, Candelaria Valdez, took me to raise as her ewn. I kept in touch with my father and my brothers and sisters, but Mrs. Valdez was a mother to me. I started to school at Rosa and finished 8th grade at Arboles. When I was old enough, my Dad let me work in the store and taught me some of the Blacksmith trade." 11 In 1929 when I was 19, I got my own sheep. Most of the time I grazed them on Federal land leased from the Dept. of the Interior on Middle Mesa. The lease cost about $.13 per head. Most winters the snow was not deep enough and did not last long enough to be a problem, but in 1931 I lost one third of my flock in the deep snow. Prices all went dow:n in the 30 1 s. We got 12 cents per pound for -wool and 8 cents a pound for lambs. 11 In 1941 when Epimenio was thrashing grain for Manley Hott, He got acquainted with Adela Mascarenas. Adela 1 s father, Celestino Mascarenas had been born in Clayton, New Mexico, later migrating with his parents to Rosa, where he met and married Magdalena Quintana in 1922. They were homesteading on their first farm when Adela was born. 11 1 was born in our cellar on the homestead. That was the first dwelling my parents built on their farm. We lived on that place until J was 4 years old. Then we moved to Silverton where Dad worked in the Treasure Tunnel Mine. I have good memories of those years. It was wonderful. to live in Silverton as a child. If you were a dare-devil, which I s~ppose I was, there were many adventures waiting. ,I don 1 t know how.we survived the railroad pump cars. A bunch of us would sneak dolm. to the rail yards, crawl up on one of the hand operated repair cars and pump it out of town up into the mountains. When we were high enough, we coasted back to town. The car would squeel around the curves nearly turning over and nearly throwing us off. Once into the flat part of town, it gradually slowed down and stopped in the rail yard. Though we did this many times 7 no one ever stopped us or warned us not to do it again. While in Silverton I met my future husband for the first time. Epimenio was herding sheep in the high mountains near Pyramid Peak. Since it was only about 28 miles to Silverton over the passes, He decided to come to La Fiesta de los Boregerros. He stayed"'With relatives near our home and pastured his burros nearby. I decided to ride the burros. I grabbed their tails and swung my feet up into the hollow of their hind legs just above the knees and rode them all over the place. You tell me why they didn't kick." "I didn 1 t see Epimenio again until we moved back to Rosa. Through the years as I was growing up, I saw him occasionally at dances, but had no friendship with him until I was 18. While we were both working at the Hott's !arm, Epimenio began to talk to me. At first I was not interested in him, but he vas nice and I began to think th.at since we were both interested in cattle and sheep and liked farm life, perhaps we could be happy.together. �~/97fr 3 W:e ve:r.-e married in October of 1941. 11 Epimenio was drafted in 1942. He was sent to Camp Roberts, then to Hawaii and on to the Solomon Islands. The Native People were very friendly , to Americans, but the Japanese planes and snipers were not so friendly. Ep1menio 1 s unit guarded the airfields on Espiritu Santu Island. - After · 17 months he was sent back to Hawaii and San Francisco for hospitalization. When Epimenio got heme, he and his family spent one summer in Aztec before moving back to Rosa where he did farm work until 1960. The Quintanas have 10 children: Nattie, Esther, Baltazar, Epimenio Jr. (deceased), Elaine, Bernard, Freddie., Larry, Selina and Jeanette. In 1960 life was rudely interrupted in the San Juan Valley. All the People in Rosa and in the valley above Navajo Dam had to move out to make way for the rising waters of Navajo Lake. The government gave Epimenio $1,900.00 for the 12 acres he had inherited from his mother. It wasn't enough, but people had to take what they could get. . "We moved t".p on Stollsteimer Creek for one summer until we found this place to buy west of Ignacio. We've been here ever since and are very happy with this place. 11 Shelby Smith ?J1~ ~~'?'lk, ~- /2.'I() ~ .i.Juu~ ~~ ~'9-~ - J?~~,,/~ ~-~ ~~~ _91/.*- : l ~ - .,f.4.,,i, ~ ~ ~ ~ Mrs. Charlotte Jones returned home May 9th following a two weeks visit with her daughter Jacqueline and family, the Rex Reas in Arvada.

Patrick E.F . Patrick 's father, Washington E. Patrick, was born at Morroco , I ndiana, near Ft . Wayne in 185'7. 'tvben 11Wash 11 , as he wa s known , moved to southwest Colorado wi t h his parents and his brothers in 1879 , they entered an unspoiled wilderness. The family settled on Vallecito Cr eek above the present reservoir site where Witt's End Ranch is l ocated. Hash ' s Brother , William, scon moved on to Ashland, Or egon . Mari an went to Pagosa, where he managed the hotel and bathhouse at the springs . Later he reanaged the Keeley Institut~ in Denv er. Wash, Lee and 1·:.il ton built a fish hatchery on Vallecito Creek. The fish were sold to the hotel in Pagosa and to restaurants in Durango. Wash got acquainted wit h John(Jack) Parsons , who was a clerk in Charles Newman's Drug Store in Dur ango. Later J ohn bought the drug store and operated it for many years . John and Wash teamed up to acquire Electra Lake, where they built a fish hatchery. This successful operation lasted until Wester n Colorado Power Co . was able to condemn the land around the lake to build a power pl ant . Whil e operating t he hatchery at Electra, Wash met John's sister- in- law, Rose Allen . They were marri ed in Dur ango i n 1891 . After losing Electra , Wash built a hatchery above Trimble Springs . Ros e and Wash had three children , Hazel, Emer ald Fl int and Har ol d Allen. Emerald was born in 1902 and was named for the two beautiful lakes above Vallecito Reservoir which Wash liked so much. The merchants in Durango were well aware of the success of Wash's hatcheries. They dectded a hatchery in Durango would be an asset to the town, so they asked Wash to collect money from various businesses to buy land on the river and to build a hatchery , which they hoped the state would later take over. Wash became so well known as a hatchery expert, he was hired as State Superintendent cf Hatcheries ,,ri th an office in the s tate capital building . His family lived i n -Denver for nine years while he supervised the building and operation of the first state hatcheries all over Colorado. When the Patricks came back to Durango, Wash worked as a govern ment trapper for several years, then trapped for himself until he moved on to California. E. F . 1 s mother, Rose, and-her parents, Zachariah and Harriet •Allen, came to Colorado i n a covered wagon drawn by oxen. The wagon train in which they traveled survived several Indian attacks 1 during which Rose and the other girls loaded rifles for the men as rast as they could. The Allens lived in Denver 2 years before going to Pueblo. InPueblo Zachariah built the first shingled house in town and constructed the old ~ourt house and one of the early public schools. Mr. Allen ran for public office and was elected Sherrif. The family moved on to Del !forte in 1874 where Mr. Allen was elec ted city marshall . In 1875 he was accidentally shot and killed by his deput y , Jack Lawis, who had been assigned to guard a group of hor se theives. Hearing that f riends of t he theives might attempt a jail break, All en gave Lewis a heavi ly l oaded shotgun and tol d him to shoot the firs t man who appeared in t he door of the jail . After attending a dance, Marshall Allen went to the jail , called to Lewis, who apparently failed to hear him, stepped inside and was shot. He liv~d only a few days. Several years later Harriet A;Llen married Cyrus Newcomb, a justice of t he Peace at Del Nor te . Later they moved on to Durango where Rose Allen met Wash. In 1923 when Wash was 66 years old, he became very ill with uremic pois oning. Doctors in Durango gave his only a short time to live. The family immediately took him to a doctor in California who got the �3 illness under control. Wash was active during the next 15 years. He and E~erald built and supervised a hatchery in Mill Creek Canyon east of Redlands for a senator who lived in San Bernardino. Pat had been writing to a. young lady who was teaching school near Ignacio, Colorado. He and Grace Anderson had known one another since they irnre both children and had managed to stay in touch through the yeal"s4 Pat and Grace were married in Durango on September 15, 1927. They immediately headed for California where they settled to help Pat's father operate the hatchery. Grace 1 s father, Wilburn Anderson was born in Mt. Airy, Georgia. He ran away from home when he was 15 to join the army during the SpanishAmerican War • .After spending a period of time in the Phillipines, he was transferred to Ft4 Apache, Arizona with the troop which was assigned to capture Geronimo . \"bile in Arizona Wilburn met a young lady named Eva Bryan, who lived at Pi netop , 30-40 miles north of the Fort. After Eva and Wilburn we re married, he left the army and went to work for the r~ilroad. He was a part of the crew which built the line to the Grand Canyon and constructed the hotel in Canyon Village. Eva's father had a store at Pinetop, later moved it to Kirtland, N.M. and then opened a store at the Pine Riv-er Indian Agency before Ignacio existed as a town. Fintlly, he moved his store down by the Ignacio Depot. Wilburn and Eva Anderson had four children: George, who was born at Winslow, Arizona; Grace Evelyn, who was born in Durango; Dorothy, born in Salt Lake City; and Don, who was bcrn in Ignacio. 11 W e lived for many years on Bro'Wlling street in the Red house now 11 owned by Jesus Martinez , 11 Grace says. We moved to Ignacio when I was in 3rd grade. I remember attending school in the rock school house located near the present grade school. I got to attend the Indian school for 3t.'.:t ,HHi 9tli g2'f..des. 'I'he San Ignacio Fiesta was even mere fun in those days than it is now. One reason was the efforts of a color·ful citizen named Fabian Martinez. Fabian was fairly wealthy. He owned a bar in the south e!ld of tmm and generally was a successful busi~es sman and a benefactor of his people. Every year he was a chief promoter of the. Fiesta. One event I'll never forget was the fat man 1 s race. Without fail Fabian, who himself was short a nd very large, would assemble 8-10 wellprop9rtioned men at one.end of ma~n street. As you can imagine the ¥,hole . town had a delightful time laughing, cheering and teasing the participants as they huffed and puffed their way to the finish line.I! Grace attended the last three year of high school in Denver in order to receive a diploma from an accred.i ted school. While there she boarded ·with Nell Marker. After High School Grace went to college at Gunnison. She taught at the Harvey School until she and E.F. Patrick were married and moved to California. The Patricks survived the depression operating the hatchery near Redlands4 Wash Patrick died in 1936. Grace and Pat planned to continue raising fish, but nature interr-upted the work in 1937. An enormous rain caused a flash flood which destroyed much of the hatchery. For several weeks it was difficult to get supplies, since the bridges were out. When World War II started, Pat went to work for the shipyards at Los Angelos, then supervised a steam plant at Norton Air Force Base near San Bernardino. In 1949 the Patricks returned to Colorado. Pat built a fish hatchery for a sports club at Electra Lake, then spent the first winter in a cabin near Electra snowed in most of the time. When George Anderson became ill, Pat and Grace ran the bulk plant for him until he could work again. Pat continued working there until he retired. In the early 50 1 s Grace started filling in for Nell Marker at the Post Office and soon worked into a full time job. Shen she retired, she had sompleted 23 years of Postal Service. �The Patricks have two daughters, Patricia Trease, who lives in Ignacio and Donna Becker of Tucson. They have four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. The Patricks have lived in other places and do quite a bit of traveling each year, but they are glad to come back to Ignacio each time. They know what many other people know. Ignacio is a special place.

You tested the oven temperature by opening the door and thrusting your hand inside? You tossed an apple peeling on the hot coal range to correct a .musty or unpleasant odor in the .house? You filled the kerosene lamps, trimmed the wicks, and washed the glass chimneys every morning? 1 Petticoats had drawstrings? You ironed everything-starched :corset covers, open drawers and I petticoats edged with Hamburg ! lace ruffles with another plain "dust ruffle" underneath? ' It took at least an hour in full :sunlight on a warm day to dry your long hair? Mother heated her curling tongs by putting them into the top of the glass chimney of the lighted i•erosene lamp? i :, You had to allow an extra ten minutes for lacing up your high laced shoes? You folded over your long-legged underwear to get it inside your long black cotton stockings? The school principal threw away the \in ari nki ng cup that used to be kept on the top of the pump in the school yard, and each child had to bring a cup from home for his own use? You provided fertilizer for your potted plants by taking a s~all shovel and a paper bag and looking in the street for some suitable horse buns (manure}? You had to remember to empty the drip pan under the ice box before you went to bed? You shaved a cake of soap into the wash boiler and boiled the white clothes o.n the top of the kitchen range? �Sunday, July second was the dat e of the Payne family reunion at the home of Glen and Evelyn Payne east of Ignacio.

During the building I s last days as 11 the u:.:RG/ station it was a part of the mov-ie, 11 A.round the World in 80 Days • ~he front of the station facing the track had been painted pink and designated as Fort Kearney~ Instead of restoring the one side to the railroad yellow the paint crew was asked to paint the rest of the building pink. As the old DC:RGistation was transformed into the Parish Hall it underwent a~other paint job. It was also used as a Day Care Center, the American Legion Hall etc. Reflecting the earnest and outspoken nature of the people of Ignacio the arishioners were asked for a. resident priest. Over early opposition their voices began to be heard in· various d:Loceasan meetings throughout Southwestern Colorado. ·In 1975, a missionary priest from the Order of the Divine rdora i,:issionaries offered his services to Bishop Busell to serve the co~. .rrrrunity for three years. On April 5, 1976 the Parish began the new experience of having a full time pr·iest, Fr. Donald Castonguay. Paint and local talent concerted the old baggage room of the depot to a suitable office and rectory. At the present tir:::e the building is also being used for church services as the St. Ignatius Catholic Church is being torn down and plans for a new building a1~e in the !!:aking for the third time in this century.

John Hasstedt 11 !,ry first la:nruage was aI tdl;- r-J 7i German, it Mr. Hasstedt rec;:alls. 11My parents we:-e both born in Germany and. migrated to America when they.were teen.;. a,g ers. ~'.y :athcr, J&cob hasstcdt, came to New York alone when he·was 'i'7 , fO"t a j'ob in a store and soon learned English well. He always had a noticeable accent, but he could speak i.n public, if necessary. Ny mother, Julie Henning, moved to Boone, Iowa, where one of her brothers had a bakery. Dad settled into that part of Iowa t o f arm. A few yeari after he and mother were married. Dad be~an to develon a serious asthma condition. His doctors recommended'a .move to western Kansas for a drier cli~atE• When I was nine months old, my parents loaded me, my two older sisters,and my older brother into a covered wagon and headed west. They settled on a homestead near Buffalo Park, now called Park, Kansas. Our first heme there ~as a dugout, very warm, but small. Dad built a sod stable for the farm animals·. Each year we planted trees and made other i:t1provements to qualify for ownership of the homestead. The cli□ate was harsh. There were snow blizzards in winter and blistering hot winds in summer. I ha~e passed green fields of corn in the morning and returned in the evening to hear the leaves rattling and dry after only one day of hot wind. 11 Af ter the liasstedt's claim was clear, they were permitted to file on a timber clai m near the Saline River, 4 miles away. About this time, they bou ght a one rocm frame house to rr:.ove onto 0heir land. Even though it was small, it was an improvement over the dugout. The children climbed a ladder to sleep in the attic. The winter wind often sifted snow through the shingles, piling snow on their beds. 11 I started to school at tbe age of 8. Since tax money was very sca·rce, school session lasted at the most 6 months and som~times only 4 months. There were no grades. Pupils read in the First Reader, the Second Reader, etc. Each year every student, no matter how old, started with the First Reader, reading through the familiar material, book after book,for a review until they reached a difficult level~ At that time the teacher would would assist them to learn the new words. Hy help was needed on the farm each fall. Instead of starting to school in Septe~ber, it .was usually Thanksgiving before I could go. I began plev..ring with a \-1alking plow when I was 12. We used a breaking plow to cutthe tightly knit sod to open new l~nd.. Then we used a stirring plow to break up and turn the soil. Fiollow-..: ing the plow is weary work. I caught myself sleepwalking many timesJ awakening only when the plow had hit a rock. By attending school only part time, I was 21 years old before I finished 8th grade. 11 "There was little for young peoplE~ to enjoy in those days. Sometimes we had parties, or school activities or church acti.vities. The first minister in that part of Kansas was a Congregationalist preacher. I joined that church when I was 12. From the time I was a small child, I liked to listen to the preachers speak and wished I could do that. This desire stayed with me. In my early 2O 1 s I decided to·enroll in the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago to learn more about the Bible. I rode the train to Chicago and was amazed at the city. The lamplighter, the elevated railways, everything was new to ~e. I attended the institute for 6 months and was still undecided about preaching when I returned home. Soon after, some of the people told the minister, 1 Let Rudolph preach. 1 11 It took me 2 weeks to w.ci te a sermon. \fnen the day came., I was quite _nervous, but it went over well. The people liked it and most important I found out I could do it and enjoyed doing it. Soon afterward I enrolled in a Congregational Church Academy at Eureka, Kansas. There I went to school and preached fo1• 2 country churches. rr In 1907 Susie Frnnces McClure and I were married. After finishing �.3 '',. a.t 'the academy, we moved to Topeka where I attended Washburn College." ii Afterwards, Su ~;ie and I decided to move to Kiowa County in Colorado. We homesteaded land near Eads. A Presbyterian minister ·came to preach at ,--') Fads once a month from La Junta. When the people found out I could preach, . • they let me speak for them and soon gave f!le his job. I soon was traveling to t,.,;o cou:ntTy churches to preach part time. With a horse and buggy it required a lot of time going back and forth. I,·fy first Model T expanded my range considerably, They soon h~d me going to Chivington and Brandon, also. To !'.lost coru:.!on people the Model T was the most important invention of that time. It ,-rould travel in all kinds of weather. Rain or snow all you had to do was button down the side curtains, put your nose against the windshield and go. Once while I was taking an elderly man to the doctor in Colorado Springs, I remarked to hi~, 1 r don't see why anybody would want a.i-:iything any better than this. 1· It was a cold miserable day. The side curtains were flapping in the wind and we were wrapped in blankets. Uneomfortable as people would be today~ we thought it was wonderful to make such sneed. 11 11 In 191 B we 1:1oved to Florida Mesa to work with the Presbyterian congregations there and at Bayfield. Our trip across the mountains was an experience to remember. Wolf Creek Pass was little more than a trail. We stayed 3 years, living in the 1,:anse on Florida Hesa before moving en to ~onument. I was out of the ministry for one year, then was assigned to the Honument church for 13 years. 11 11 In 1937 I was again assigned to the San .Juan Larger Parish ·which included Florida Mesa, Bayfield, Ignacio and Allisbn.I stayed with this assignnent until I retired in 1949. Jn the later years the roads improved but in the early years it was a real challenge to make the rounds. ~t cne time I had a Viodel T, a buggy , a sled and a saddle. All ;·rere needed c.t one time or another. 11 'I'he Hasstedt 1 s had three children. Julia now lives in Castle Rock. Cecil ~nd Dorothy are both in Bayfield. Susie Hasstedt died in December of 1965, i•il" Hasstedt is now 99. He has this bit of advice,'Old age is not all fun. Fut it off as long as possible.' Of course this is said in fun. Hr. Hasstedt is in good health. His hearing is good. He ha~ a good appetite and he feels good. Best of all~ his mind is sharp and full of good humor. One thing he regrets is the gradual losing of his eyesi_ght. He has given away all ,h;i.s books. 1 . nl can 1 t read any more. Fortunately, I have memorized a good deal of scripture, but I have forgotten a lot of it, too. They usually let me preach on the Sunday nearest to my birthday. I don't like to talk about hell and damnation. Hy favorite subject of them all is God and his plan of salvation for all men. 11 . Hr. Hasstedt now lives in Bayfieild with his son, Cecil and his daughterin law, Doris. ·we wish to thank him for all the years he has been a help and an encouragement to his fellowman and wish him many more years of good health.

August 8th, 1899._. His parents were Price Williams, a Southern Ute, and Marie Capote from the Nortnern Ute Tribe. 11 My parents kept sheep, hoI"ses and some cattle _ , and moved around to find good pasture. We always came back to the Florida. The river bottom was_ a good place to raise potatoes and corn •. . The whole area had d_eer and other game. There was no hetter river than the Florida. It ~as clear and full of fish and turtles. While I was still young, my parentsbuilt a two-room frame house in the river bottom. We had good neighbors. Nicholas and Peter Eaton lived nearby. It was a very good life. No boundaries and no fences. We could go to the high mountains or to the valleys to find pasture or to hunt without anyone to tell us no. 11 11 When I was ten years old , my parents sent me to the bearding schocl at Ignacio. It was pretty bad there at first. I snake only Ute. After a while l began to learn English from the other chiidren. I liked the holidays when I could ride our horses and be free. In the suI!'.l!Ilers I herded the sheep fpr my Dad. 7here was goo~ hunting around the sheep camps. I shot my flrst doe when I was 16. Borne of the bucks we got were so heavy we had to cut them up or carry them on a horse. 11 11 I donrt go to powwows any more, but I liked them when I was young. The tribe used to put on a real show. There were different styles of dancing, more than now. The Bear Dance was always the first dance of the season. In the 1920 1 s the Sun Dancewas started here. I think it came from Oklahoma.'! ur went only to 5th grade at the boarding school. When I quit, I enrolled at the country school at La Posta for a while to learn Spanish. 11 "In 1918 I was ready to enlist in the army to go to the war in France, but before I got in, the war ended; so I traveled around working at different jobs for a while. In 1920 I got to visit rny grandfather, ~ames Capote, in Ft. Duchesne. He told me many things about the Utes, but I have forgotten most of it. My father died in 1921. Soon afterward we built a house north of Ignacio. I ~orked at the Indian Agency for many years plo...:ing and running the thrashing machine." Roy married Labrara Radea. They had one daughter, M~ry Suazo.. Later Roy married Mary Bean. Their children are 1-fary Santisteven, Vonnestine Eerrera and Eileen Weaver. Roy remembers seeing automobiles around Ignacio as early as 1913, but h~ never owned his own car until 1939 when he bought a Mercury. He says, 11 We had a good life after the Second World War. I had a good job and also made money raising sheep and cattle. We owned seven different cars and did some traveling around. 11 · Mary died in 1961. The only one of Roy's brothers or sisters still living is Belle Cutthair. Recently Roy moved from his home north of Ignacio to one of the apartemts at the senior center. He 1s now 79. His vision is f air and his hecring' is excellent. He says, 11 I never thought I'd live this long, but here I am. 11 ' Shelby Smith �~ ?t'~: ~~; ~: ~~'l;l'1?T ~~ 1:1:,~~ ~-~ - R~lr~ ~~ - f f ~ ~ ~~~ f;d,L,/41JW--c,-_~ ,:u:.. ,J.,ul,u - 'r"f./#.~ - f r ~ ~ ~ 0~ ~ -·.r- •. -~- .. ~ _...... ,-.J -~~ ~ L.J ~ �Mrs. Lousia Hartig had company during the Labor Day Holidays . &re from Denver were her gra.nddaughter, Marsha and her husband, John Johnsen and his pa.rents , Mr . and Mrs .

The t own of Perdenal es sits in the Sierra ~adre R~nge in the west part of Chi huahua. Jose has little !l':emory of his life there. His father, Flores Alf onso Audera, died when Joe was an infant. This was followed by the death of his mother, Fra~ces, in 1915 when Joe was 8. It is a natter of speculation what would have becone of Joe if he had spent the remainder of his life in :-rexico. However, when his aunt and uncle, the Durans, who li vcd in :Sncinada, Hew· I:exico, heard abcut their sister's death, they decided to go see about the family. ".·lhat they found was little Jose, 8 ::,;ears old, in need of a new father and mother .. They brought him home with the□ and changed ~is nar:ie from Andera to Duran. 11 1-Iy uncle, Rosario Duran, was a blacksmith. As soon as I was old enough, he began to teach ;De some of the trade. Hy aunt Dolores Duran died when I was 11. Soon after this my uncle sold out and moved to _Edith,Colorado. I never went to school even one day. There was always too much work to do. At the age of 14 I began h9rding sheep for Felix Garcia, then later for Charley Red. Once in a while we had trouble with bears attacking the sheep and would have to go O!l a bear hunt. 11 Jose and his wife had six children. They are Niguel and )..rturo who l ive i n Ogden, Utah; Juanita and Ru~aldo who live in Albuquerque; 1-'.ar.y Monto ya i.:ho l ives in. 3lanco and Rosa who lives in Chama, N. :,:. Betwe en jobs with the sheep herding, Joe worked in Harry S~ith's Savmi.ill i!l LuJT:berton . In 1944, even though Joe was 37 years old, he decided to join the army~ The war was still going strong. Joe was sent to the Pacific a..'1d spent ti!Ile in Hawaii, the ?hillipi!'1es arid Japan. After 7 years he came home to :::dith, which he used as. ho!!:.e base for the next 11 years. In 1962 Joe sold his far?:. at Edith, noved to Pagosa and worked for San Juan Lu~ber until he retired. In the spring of this year he rented one of the apartr::ients in the senior center in Ignacio ·where he has · proved to be one of the best gardeners in_La Plata County. Two years ago Joe got to r eturn to see his relatives in Perdenales, • Vi-exico. Joe looked at the dry r::ountains surrounding the toTtm and 1. wondered how different his life would have been if his aunt and uncle ha1 not arrived in 1915.

Her father, Thomas Ethridge Terry was born at Chickasha, Ok ahoma Territory in 1887 and her mother, Lenore Estelle (Bailei) Terry was born at Fayetteville, Arkansas. The instinct to go west ured the Terrys just as it had thousands of others. 11 In 1 91 6," Jannie says, 11 :::n.y father sold his farm at 1n'heeler, put all e could carry in two covered wagons and started west. Though I was on y five at the time, I have several clear memories of the trip. One,night we camped beside a lake near Groom, Texas. With water so scarce on the plains, mother did not lose the chance to do the fa~ily washing. Except for some of our cattle dying of blackleg, the only unpleasant incident of the trip was an encounter with a Gypsy woman who picked my father 1 s pocket. l•'.y :parents were young, totally unfamiliar with th~ habits of Gypsies and, therefore, an easy prey. This was not our last experience with Gypsies." !11,'1e settled at Porter, New Mexico, w'.nere I went to schoo!. all 12 years. All the farming was dry land. Dad raised broom corn, maize and hay. Me cultivated big gardens and raised chickens, pigs and. cows. For sweetening we grew sugar cane. When it was mature, we cut and peeled it and took it to my uncle, who could make the best sorgun molasses you ever tasted. He had a press powered by horses to squeeze the juice out of the cane. The juice flowed -into a gently sloping metal trough under wh.:i.ch a fire was huilt. As the juice slo·,,;ly f,lowed back and forth down the chan,.'1els of the trough, it boiled until it was thickened to the right degree. We ground our o'l-m corn with a hand mill. It made delicious bread. Life was good in New Hexico until the dry years came. 11 11 When I finished school in 1929, I ~arried Wea.ver King. Wed.id OK on the farm until the drought of the 30 1 s. 7hen the bottom dropped out of prices. It got so bad we were selling eggs for 5 cents a dozen and ten gallon cans of cream for $2.50. We got rid of our cattle and bought sheep, thinking they could find something to eat even if the cows couldn 1 t. In those dry summers we got the ~ost terrific electric storms, but little or no rain •. The winds would raise clouds of dust as black as night. After it passed the dust stood 2 inches deep .on the fence posts. 11 11 our son, Tommy, was born in 1935. Until then we and a lot of other folks had hung on thinking the dry years would surely end and things get back to normal, but it kept right on. We began hearing talk of moving on. Some had done it. One of our neighbors had gone to Western Col6radc to look things over. He came back excited and told -us, 'That 1 s the Rock Candy Mountain out there. Apples hang from the trees~ gardens are full of everything you want to eat. Rivers are full of fish and the woods full of game. All you have to buy is coal oil, salt and baking powder. The rest is for the taking. 1 Weaver and I got excited, too. We asked a lot of questions and finally said, '_Tell us some of the bad things. 11 But he answered, 'No, I can tell you're coming anyway. You'll find out the bad things when you get there. 111 11 Well, he was right. We sold out and came to La Plata County, Colorado, in 1936. Weaver sold all his sheep and got 8 horses. He and a friend made one trip to Oxford just to bring the horses. They drove to Albuquerque and up thro~gh Cuba. It was the last of September before he was ready to take me and Tommy. One of our neighbors loaded our Pinto riding horse and its colt and all our possessions �~lr7~ 3 tnto his truck and headed west. Fearing the unpaved roads north of Albuquerque if it rained , he drovestraight to Gallup, up to Shiprock andthen to Aztec . It was a beautiful trip . As we got to the Colorado line just below Bondad, all I could see were great bluffs and rocky hillsides. I asked, 1 Is it all like this? ' They assured me it was not. We settled into a place S . E. of the old Hood School east of Durango and for the next several years rented places near Oxford." 11 As soon as we got here the drawbacks showed up. On the first Sunday it snowed . That whole winter it snowed and snowed until I thought it would never qui t and inthe spring I thought it would never melt. That was one drawt,ack. The other was mud. Oxford mud ought to be world famous. Because it's really mud. It was unbelievable. At first we couldn't cope with it. Weaver tried to feed the stock out of the wagon. Chunks· of mud the size of me fell off the wheels. He soon lea rned not to even try it unless the ground was frozen. The snow could be just as rough. I've seen horses get so tired trying to pull the wagon through it, they just lay dmm in the snow. After we got a car, we often had to leave it parked at the Oxford Store and walk home on the railroad tracks. 11 "That first winter little Tommy and I (he was just 15 months old) were snowbound many weeks. But we didn't mind. He loved to play in the snow and I'll have to admit I did too. We had plerity of firewood and a barrel of canned good, so we made it through the winter just fine. During the war years we milked 14 cows . Prices began to rise. Fe~ 2 while it looked as if the price of cream would go to a dollar a pound, but it reached $.99 and tha t 1 s as f ?,r as it got . :le bought our far□ north of Oxford with crea::? c:iecks . Weaver was the ditch rider, and did odc"i jobs as well as work the farm to make a living. The highlight of his yea.r was the elk season. 11 The Kings two :hildren still live in the area. Tommy married Janie Baird and lives in Ignacio. Beth married Jim Sower and li ves in Bayfield, Weaver died in 1965 . J annie stayed on the farm for 3 years, than moved into Ignacio. When asked ,,·?hether she ever had second thoughts about moving to. Colorado, Jannie says, 11 You se e we didn. 1 t leave. I've been her e 42 years and it all adds up pretty well. 11 1 Shelby Smith A new Catholic church has been under construction for soce months along highway 172 to·,mrd allison .
