(GORMAlf) JONES Charlotte Gorman was born in Chicago, the daughter of William and Frances Gorman, both of whom were Canadian i mmigrants born near Toronto, Ontario. ·when William and Francis met in Chicago in 1900, she was working as a bookkeeper·ror t he Balti~ore and Ohio Railroad . William worked for the Chicago Street Railr oad Co . which operated horse-drawn street cars all over the Chicago Metro ar ea . Women were supposedl y unliberated in 1900, but Frances played golf often and well. Both she and William were interested in the theater. Years later Charlotte says s he recalls hearing them talking about the Barrymores and th~ Drews and other f amous acting families of that period. Host recreation in Chicago during the summer centered around Lake Michigan . "In the summer my mother and her brothers and sisters usually rented a houseboat on the lake. The boat was moored to a pier off the shore several miles from. town. The only access to town was a pac~et boat which came along once a day . If we wanted to go to town for shopping or to send mail , we raised a flag on the boat as a signal for the pack3t boat to stop . These vacations were a cool relaxing time of swimming , fishing, sunbathing and r est. 11 Charlotte's memories of Chicago , such as those above, have been reinforced by her par ents, since she was only about four years old when t he Germans moved to the Ozar ks.. Before William retired he began dabbling in the buying and selling of real estate. He moved the family on to one of his plots near Ironton and Burbank, Miss ouri, about 90 miles south of St. Louis. During t he year and a half t he Gormans were there, William was the post master in Ironton. Then William heard of the Loma Land Development Co., which was opening farming land in the Colorado River Valley west of Grand Junction and Fruita. William and many other easterners invested in far mland there. A Presbyterian Mission was opened at Loma and is still operating, but the farm projects did not do so well. Neither the Germans nor the other easterners had heard of alkali land. Most of the farms at Loma proved largely unsuitable for irrigated farming. Therefore the Gormans moved to Orchard Heights near Fruita. Then began some of the most enj oyable years of Charlotte's life. "Orchard Heights was a beautiful place. We could look right up into the Colorado National Monument from our yard. The orchards, mostly apples, occupied hundreds of acres. Our place was rented from a New Yor k State man who had planted every kind of apple we knew about and many varieties we never knew the names of . 11 Charlotte and her br other, Douglas traveled to school at Fruita 3 miles away in a horse - drawn school bus. The bus consisted of a wagon with seats along the sides and benches for ,the little ones down the middl e . It was roofed and had black oil -cloth curtains which could be closed during bad weather. . "All the young ones in our area played "hide-and-go-seek ' and went swimming during the warm months . During winter we had community parties or went ice s kating on t he stock ponds . 11 Fall was a time of work, a time of apple picking and potato digging and of constructing apple boxes . The grower s built their own appl e boxes from pre-cut sticks .a nd boards . Charlotte remembers doing her share of nailing. Then the apples were pa cked , hauled to the Railroad Depot and shipped. Farm children have opportunities for varieties of pets largely unavailable to city kids. Charlotte remembers one pet lamb which became a nuisance 1n the neighborhood. ) �:2_ "He would follow our buggy wherever we went. Once he followed us all the way to Loma where he made himself a nuisance in the flower beds. Almost the whole town turned out to make sure he followed us when we left." When Charlotte was about.10 years old, her parents moved to another place near Fruita where they attended a country school for gr~des 4-8. William grew potatoes and tomatoes as well as apples there. "While we were there a counle of burros ca!!l.e to live with us. They just showed up. Douglas would try to ride one of them to school, but he usually didn't make it. About halfway there the burro. would turn around and head for home and Doug would have to walk all the way to school ·anyway. 11 Charlotte loved to read and did a lot of WTiting, too. At the age of 9 she announced that she intended to be a newspaper reporter. 11 I don 1 t know why I said that, but it nmst have been a premonition of things to come. 11 In high school Charlotte especially enjoyed English, dramatics and journalism. She was the editor of the first Fruita High School newspaper. In college, Charlotte majored in journalism and would have accepted a job on the Grand Junction newspaper, but the wages were · too low. Instead she taught .school in Fruita for l+ years. i ; r first came to the San Juan Basin to visit a college friend who lived in Cortez. I stayed. in Durango a while at the SterJ_ing Hotel which was operated by Lawrence Wiseman's mother. Mrs. Wiseman and I became good friends and she took me ~Tith her on a visit to Ignacio to see Lawrence and Hargaret. It was on this visit that I met my future husband. Fay Jones worked at the sugar beet mill in Brighton during the fall and early winter. During spring and sumruer he came back to Ignacio to help his. aunt and uncle run the Comme!'cial Hotel which was located on Goddard Ave. where the recent Bill Liese auto repair shop is located. 11 The hotel has burned down: 'since then. but in its day Charlotte says it was a very nice place and.an interesting place to stay. "All kind of travelBrs, including Washington officials hereon Tribal business were there. The parlor was a place of lively conversation and fun in the evenings. The restaurant served delicious food. A complete Sunday dinner cost $.40." Inflation operated then, too. Charlotte says Louis Morris recalls what a blow i t was when the Sunday di nners increased f ram $. l+o to $ . 50 per =i_eal. 11 I s tayed there in tb.e hotel several days. They were so snort handed that I was offe:i:'eo. a job and took it. It ·was there I got a cquainted with Fay. We got married ~n November ,of 1933 . Fay worked i n t h e mill i n Brighton t ill Christmas time. Then we ca~e back to Ignacio. 11 _ Since steady jobs were almost ~mpossible to find during those depression years, when Fay a..~d Charlotte got a chance to buy the Ignacio Chieftan, they took it. At that time the Chieftan was located in otehalf of the building now occupied by Rudy's Lounge. The other half of the building was Mr. Stauffer 1 s Barber Shop ( Jessie Hott's father ) . Charlotte was the editor and renorter and Fay was the publi sher a~d advertising manager ; . It wasn't- easy to keep a newspaper alive during the 30 1 s. Many subscriptj_ons were paid in pr oduce rather than with cash. One man paid his with strawberries for years. The Joneses ha,,e three children: Malcom lives in La Porte, Texas, Jacqueline Rea lives in Denver and Kathleen Rosenberg lives in Oakland, New Jersey. �4- -3 Fay died in 1968. Since ~hen Charlotte has spent quite a bit of time traveling. She has been to Canada twice· to visit relatives and on a bus tour of Mexico. No one is surprized that Charlotte can't quit writing. She has written a number of short stories and is currently working on a history of the Presbyterian Church in this area. Every month Mrs. Jones voluntarily supplies most of the news for tfu.is newsletter. A healthy interest in life is rewarding and invigorating. Charlotte certainly has this. 11 When I first ca,ne to Ignacio~ I thought it was a· fascinatine place with its variety of cultures and traditions and its beautiful surroundings. I still do. 11 Shelby Smith JlJLY SOCIAL Welcome to our July 25 social~ DATE: WHERE: WHE!f: HOW: .July 25, 1975 Ute Park 12.00 noon Pot luck We hope to make this a good old summertime social in the park.
