Called Mabel. Sister of Daisy Herrington Lauterbach.
Mabel and Daisy Herrington were daughters of Bill Herrington and Ella Walton, who lived one half mile east of us at Cashion, Oklahoma. Ella Walton was a sister of Ed Walton who homesteaded across the road from my father in 1889, in old Oklahoma. (Blanche Winters Lauterbach, 1978)
I was 12 year old when she died. I was devastated because she was such a wonderful person and so important to me. Now there was a supermom! When my mother was burned real bad from trying to spill some gasoline onto her bonfire, we went to Grandma's and lived for 6 months while Mom laid on a cot in the parlor because she could only have one light blanket over her she was burned so badly. Grandma took wonderful care of us and never missed a beat with all her duties. It sure was cold upstairs in that old farmhouse. Daddy hired a lady to take care of Mama because she refused to go to a hospital. That was where you went to die. (Wanda Marlene Jackson Bedwell, 2002) |
