I saw a Facebook post about him, and just had to have that little kitten! After several days and weeks of inquiries and applications with references, I got him (at first it was her! then I found out it was a he) been through that before with Mr. River Quay cat, Dec.2022-Dec. 2023. The Shelter's young girl, Jessi who rescued him from inside a car engine (the car was a Jeep Renegade) named him Carwyn. I am beside myself with names for him, but I like Carwyn! So maybe Carwyn? He was stuck in a car and he won getting out! He was in the car engine for 2 days! It took 2 hours to get him out! He kept running around in the engine! Finally, Jessi played a mother cat purring on her phone and he came to the sound. </span><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn2_fC6gROTe4HSz7L1_--H7XH_VdBaGrfsImQwVt16mz2DOk5BcUBCVZiDyKvFkCMtnwQDObo-ldZbFim0REja54cniTOdxECnOx54yBjYlyFbiSkZTx_yb07RtWP8I3AwEmY8lMHCMSgLD7Z-xHVVnDxTbCpdMlLJyzOsapFgXp-ghyqQAorhn2twA/s2048/harrisonville%20cat.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn2_fC6gROTe4HSz7L1_--H7XH_VdBaGrfsImQwVt16mz2DOk5BcUBCVZiDyKvFkCMtnwQDObo-ldZbFim0REja54cniTOdxECnOx54yBjYlyFbiSkZTx_yb07RtWP8I3AwEmY8lMHCMSgLD7Z-xHVVnDxTbCpdMlLJyzOsapFgXp-ghyqQAorhn2twA/s320/harrisonville%20cat.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">Day 1; Thursday, May 18, I brought him home. Was reminded by Jessi before leaving the shelter with him, "he still is a little feral" Remembering that, when we got him home he promptly hid. I had no idea where he was? So I just went about my way acting like he didn't exist to let him get familiar with the place. After all, he is only 3 months old, was in a cage since the rescue, and has had a Vet checkup, shots, and neutered. That's a lot of things going on! Now a new home! Can you imagine what a little cat on the floor sees with giant feet and hands approaching him and grabbing him?? I would be afraid also! </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Day 2; Friday 19th, Rising in the morning I decided to continue acting like he did not exist, letting him do anything he wanted. As I sat at my computer in the living room he finally came out! I pretended to not notice him. Even if I looked his way he took off! Gradually within a few hours, he was out playing with ALL his toys. It was getting close to 4pm which is happy hour for me. I pushed back my chair and went over to the kitchen (I live in a condo-like apartment, so the living room and kitchen are one big room) I think Carwyn thought he was in a giant cage for he never ventured anywhere else in the apartment! He had his toys, food, and litter box all right there within reach! As I was standing in the kitchen at the counter here comes Carwyn from under the lounge in the living room to join me! With one little "meow" he was out! I placed a tiny piece of cheese in my fingers and held it down to him, he gobbled that up and wanted more. I had some small pieces of chicken and he munched on that. Over happy hour we became lifetime buddies! He was feral no more! We spent the evening watching TV and playing with toys. I did through all these adjustments have my iPad on the floor playing a mother cat purring. I think this was a key point from day one I did this 24/7 helped with the adjustment.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixiTKYa-yXbFL39wtqiJ3OcP-rVxhNndY3coTreaX2oeZAGnpgHJ7sNq6VWzlruWEJ4mPI_EDHhpIvKAbgPsNaIYjSB0RP0PpLdtuGMXBD_Vu88pajfD4LpD22DBoakhdklI81L1_dFKnoltMZjM_SdmVHHJasnRhowWCHJ9b5_DiEUsu9fh_BO5v1wA/s4032/IMG_2158.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixiTKYa-yXbFL39wtqiJ3OcP-rVxhNndY3coTreaX2oeZAGnpgHJ7sNq6VWzlruWEJ4mPI_EDHhpIvKAbgPsNaIYjSB0RP0PpLdtuGMXBD_Vu88pajfD4LpD22DBoakhdklI81L1_dFKnoltMZjM_SdmVHHJasnRhowWCHJ9b5_DiEUsu9fh_BO5v1wA/s320/IMG_2158.HEIC" width="240" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">Day 3; Saturday 20th, Good Morning Meow! Play and eat, eat and play! We spent the day adjusting to each other. I played Cat TV from youtube all day and he watched most of the day! HE LOVED IT! Chasing birds and squirrels! He adjusted so fast and so well! I was expecting 2 weeks or more to adjust to humans! He still will run when abruptly approached or a stranger. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Day 4; Sunday 21st, Good Morning Meow! He never leaves the living room/kitchen area so he is always there with the good morning meow! Then I left for an afternoon at Andrew's. I left my big desktop Mac computer on a bird video and he was also busy watching he never noticed I left! Returning I could tell what toys he played with and he was wondering "What happened to happy hour today??? We had cheese and crackers, chicken pieces, 1/2 of a lickable cat treat, and later a tiny, tiny bowl of vanilla ice cream. (I did stop at CVS and got him more toys, mice, and balls are his favorite) Then bedtime. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1kmD-5HAxwgUuUmk0bWBbbnfOEQeIDBVHtDlEL20RjyOQHUth-jm5rmX-loS2aZ8nYIgRR163sZP6wimRlAnW7cVlJh5H6PoCQqDOxLkt93LF3_JZcU7diuW-luNsnbo3_qRHA2MmRrtMXbYncqjJUO2yU0GVk8nTL6A00pXMfw6k63F5f4h0IO66Qg/s4032/IMG_2156.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1kmD-5HAxwgUuUmk0bWBbbnfOEQeIDBVHtDlEL20RjyOQHUth-jm5rmX-loS2aZ8nYIgRR163sZP6wimRlAnW7cVlJh5H6PoCQqDOxLkt93LF3_JZcU7diuW-luNsnbo3_qRHA2MmRrtMXbYncqjJUO2yU0GVk8nTL6A00pXMfw6k63F5f4h0IO66Qg/s320/IMG_2156.HEIC" width="240" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3oN2q3hiGj8IfjUPs4NHdd04TdgfsEJv3ZnUi6TmAI5HTV3EhN8lDd0ev-i4EvNL6d5P1S-2MwdtRyY0Y1D9ARw-y6irYFjfrquXBkKybX7uJw5O-RtxNWW424vgLy52mBpf_-LCtEnoJYYhI8GE0j7l91q27lfY12ad3_Lk4BpKg7lyeWhQ-3mu4Rg/s4032/IMG_2179.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3oN2q3hiGj8IfjUPs4NHdd04TdgfsEJv3ZnUi6TmAI5HTV3EhN8lDd0ev-i4EvNL6d5P1S-2MwdtRyY0Y1D9ARw-y6irYFjfrquXBkKybX7uJw5O-RtxNWW424vgLy52mBpf_-LCtEnoJYYhI8GE0j7l91q27lfY12ad3_Lk4BpKg7lyeWhQ-3mu4Rg/s320/IMG_2179.HEIC" width="240" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;">Day 5; Monday 22nd, Got my Good Morning Meow greeting and off to the races!

Place of the Britons is perhaps a fair translation. The land was held by several oners, many with "de Brethenham" in the name.It is not known if they were related or if different families took up the term as describing their land-holding.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(78, 69, 63); color: #4e453f; font-family: ui-sans, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 10px 0px 0px; padding: 0px;">Baconsthorpe and Hempstead are adjoining parishes, now joined into one parish, located near Holt Market , in northern Norfolk.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(78, 69, 63); color: #4e453f; font-family: ui-sans, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 10px 0px 0px; padding: 0px;">William, the immigrant, is probably the ancestor of nearly all Brittinghams in America. It was with him that the name changed e to i. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(78, 69, 63); color: #4e453f; font-family: ui-sans, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 10px 0px 0px; padding: 0px;">William possibly lived with an uncle after the early death of his parents. He was transported to America by John Nutthall in 1659 and the land rights Nutthall got for the act were transferred to Roger Woolford in 1663. The cost of passage was 5 pounds, paid off by an indenture of 7 years. William received his own land grants for transporting people.</p>Kaye Brittinghamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04231860076677552990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465759485822547667.post-84462458216695264082023-05-08T14:03:00.001-05:002023-05-08T14:03:30.189-05:00Remembering "A Million Little Things" <p><span style="font-size: medium;"> My Mom used to set up her coffee cup every evening before going to bed.

One was of our family before Galen and Thurman. First-ever picture of me! It was taken about 1953 on Ash Street, Nevada Mo. My Dad was working at the state hospital. Not earning enough money to support the family he got a part-time job as a janitor at Missouri Public Service. He needed a car to get there. He went to 1st Finance Company, owned by Mr. Fowler, and got a loan to buy a c</span><span><span>ar. T</span><span>he car was </span><span>eventually repossessed.</span></span><span> </span></span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">Then Mr. Flower told Dad about the Patrolman position on the Nevada Police Force. Dad applied and got the job. Quitting the State Hospital job, and keeping the MoPub job, he began his career as Patrolman to Chief of Police. Also, Mr. Fowler was there for the Brittingham family financial needs whenever that occasion happened. He gave Dad a 2nd chance. They had an enduring relationship.

It's also the story of his life with me which sadly just ended today after several months of renal failure diagnosed on Sept. 9, 2022. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Memorial for River Quay</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">River Quay, ?-(Not knowing his age the Vet had guessed 7-10 years, with his final health issues I am going to say he was 10-12 years old when I got him) Which would make his life, 2010-01/09/2023</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">On Dec.13, 2021, I happened on the Facebook page of Columbus Park Neighborhood where I saw a lost cat posted. The funny thing, is I hardly ever go to the group pages?? I see certain postings from their page on mine but not all land there. Well, this gentleman (a cat lover himself, with two cats) posted a beautiful calico cat looking similar to a kitten my son had just adopted off the streets of Columbus Park. Thinking this cat may be part of that litter I was intrigued? OH NO, I did not want a cat but wanted some details to make sure it was not a sister to my son's cat. Asking the person who found the cat, was feeding it and watching over it the age? He seemed to think a year or so-my son's cat was younger, but still might be her sister? Well, with many back and forth messages on Facebook, I got more and more involved with this lost cat, I was getting attached and had feelings for it living on the streets in December! Needless to say, I adopted the cat that very evening! The gentleman was kind enough to bring "her" over to my apartment building. I did have a cat carry I store for my son. We transferred the cat to my carrier and exactly then "she" was my cat! The gentleman who brought "her" over brought me some liter, with no liter box of my own and it was late in the evening, I made a liter box out of a box top. Second, the problem? no cat food?? What to do? I gave him water and milk, seem to satisfy until morning. I had some salmon leftovers in the frig and he "stubbed" those. Early the next morning my son recused "her" with cat food! Why the "'s marks?? First Vet visited I found out "she" was a "he" a rare male calico! Vaccines and not need to neuter for he was already neutered. Thus, having the idea this used to be someone's cat or I guess sometimes in Columbus Park stray cats are trapped and taken to the Vet for spa or neuter, but usually, these are kittens just from liters of cats. Where had he been for possibly 10-12 years? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I first named him "Ugg" as in ugg it's a boy! I was hoping for a girl. Then I am the age I remember the River Market as River Quay, I thought that was a cool name! My son found his cat on Charlotte street and named her Charlotte, she really is a girl calico, as precious and sweet as they come! Love that petite little cat! So on with River Quay story. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">It was nearing December 15th, 2021, exactly the time when I make 8-10 dozen Christmas Sugar Cookies. Well, guess who wanted to help and or who wanted to lie right by the bottom of the oven? Guessed it, River Quay! I had to step over him to put the cookies in the oven! </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF2U5ta6SF5kqz5_tial2Civ_e7uC-b47oW6GmboKEVrvPaMfeDNu9uGust8CsFJEq1YiVFHhmII_MDKyESgzr0RyY9wajNGxzaEDTADdD5URZbnoieydZ8fv_oJQxz-jJP78gXayX5A7re3UIpmVLznBvD3nEXs1oBzzTBjfPVDGkDRdRsAXu2_xN8A/s2082/oven%202.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2082" data-original-width="1562" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF2U5ta6SF5kqz5_tial2Civ_e7uC-b47oW6GmboKEVrvPaMfeDNu9uGust8CsFJEq1YiVFHhmII_MDKyESgzr0RyY9wajNGxzaEDTADdD5URZbnoieydZ8fv_oJQxz-jJP78gXayX5A7re3UIpmVLznBvD3nEXs1oBzzTBjfPVDGkDRdRsAXu2_xN8A/s320/oven%202.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">He was such a good cat, I was always wondering why he was on the streets? Where had he lived most of his life, was he lost or dumped? For the 1st few months he just wanted to be by me, he just stayed in the living room area. I got him a shaggy bed and he loved it! Once in there, he was sleeping peacefully for hours! He was litter box trained! I set up the litter box in my bedroom walk-in closet and never had to show him where it was! First evening with me he darted right to that litter box! I did notice he would drink a tremendous amount of water? So, I thought I needed to ask the Vet about this? I had never seen a cat drink so much water? Well, we got along just fabulously! I loved this cat and I think he loved me. We now were a family! </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">After buying him some toy plush mice at CVS I learned he LOVED to play with them. This was a constant time of day, mouse play. I would put the mouse under in front of the cabinet and he swatted them under the cabinet and then tried to retrieve it, with a little help from me and the 3ft ruler we were successful in the game of "swat the mice" and then the game moved to the bottom of the bathroom door, he swatted the mice under and went around and swatted them back! Smart cat! Sometimes he just gathered them up and stood guard over them. He was so funny! One morning I awoke to mice in my bed? During the night River Quay had brought me the mice he had caught that night, so cute! What a lovely morning when you wake up to pastel plush mice in your bed. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7VVAu-JR7LPb5CG9Fdol-SpXGqF_yFJELfn582jTqxq94Ac4K7tCaL7HJcMlFUd3lnruhIclwDaJLfW5EN4a9b67rJ9BwhJ5Tnujm8i_0axf9fI2DSOqVd26yE9NSL3eGbJa2JIAE6t5QdTu_YiIU4F1pdbMSK_JDnbIKr0H0DpZil2oH9CY8l6zXCg/s4032/QUAY%20MICE%20BROUGHT%20TO%20MY%20BED.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7VVAu-JR7LPb5CG9Fdol-SpXGqF_yFJELfn582jTqxq94Ac4K7tCaL7HJcMlFUd3lnruhIclwDaJLfW5EN4a9b67rJ9BwhJ5Tnujm8i_0axf9fI2DSOqVd26yE9NSL3eGbJa2JIAE6t5QdTu_YiIU4F1pdbMSK_JDnbIKr0H0DpZil2oH9CY8l6zXCg/s320/QUAY%20MICE%20BROUGHT%20TO%20MY%20BED.heic" width="240" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Another unusual thing I notice about River Quay, he was not alarmed by EXTREMELY loud noises? Like the vacuum, my counter top ice crusher (when he was lying just feet away), and the garbage disposal, never even flinched! So from that, I gathered, he might have been on the streets for a long time? He could hear very well! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I always "loved" his many sleeping positions! So cute! Many, many pictures of the sleeping cat! I certainly would not want that many pictures of me sleeping!</span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoAQwWpxMm2eo28Ow885ljfOIiUZPu7X35E3Qk_hiI2TU-i7QG9iwK-4AdDx2-6EU9zbUPKzFDYdygR1R-lks7mvulXFhFtYwgPRZPq9S-5013maicRSN60JL4-jh-vcmlfFbQk-bAe6eK4tsF55bHyZrv7v1HT3yDpjHVurOuz-qjo1VpQSsCHAvfLw/s2994/QUAY%20LOVE%20PILLOW%202.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1969" data-original-width="2994" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoAQwWpxMm2eo28Ow885ljfOIiUZPu7X35E3Qk_hiI2TU-i7QG9iwK-4AdDx2-6EU9zbUPKzFDYdygR1R-lks7mvulXFhFtYwgPRZPq9S-5013maicRSN60JL4-jh-vcmlfFbQk-bAe6eK4tsF55bHyZrv7v1HT3yDpjHVurOuz-qjo1VpQSsCHAvfLw/s320/QUAY%20LOVE%20PILLOW%202.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1f-hi3dEfhlAI57nna55u19NVD4nMNxctRdE31rYq5N6mPIkpn_eyWLx5hPa4GgRwsKxpv7XnlLHjxjRF-cR7Na2TWYqvTyzj2ZgW1gQ_718TBhFD2PWOzSpWXFwNVmZ4wHrlkvxLYAyiYOXilMWP896LRxi6LeVzH3YUnbiH1-N2gbdSy5Gtd44rlg/s2624/QUAY%20IPAD%20CAT.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1968" data-original-width="2624" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1f-hi3dEfhlAI57nna55u19NVD4nMNxctRdE31rYq5N6mPIkpn_eyWLx5hPa4GgRwsKxpv7XnlLHjxjRF-cR7Na2TWYqvTyzj2ZgW1gQ_718TBhFD2PWOzSpWXFwNVmZ4wHrlkvxLYAyiYOXilMWP896LRxi6LeVzH3YUnbiH1-N2gbdSy5Gtd44rlg/s320/QUAY%20IPAD%20CAT.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxSt6GDpYAdCkWzFPQ65_J0hcCDa0oHtgvp8M-wiQIXdgh4VLdwrCIjpDA3cR5v2VrFlVn1QgV0B_ZxW98JS18ti55-06pBYvRmVc6O_X9lsoHRLuCJiDVlqDcLrPT4JwXkb81FOB_rps476c3IYqXFfC7iiKaCloYbFI4nzDxpUcIVHGBFlDoTYW6Eg/s1968/QUAY%20CAT%20COLLAGE.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1968" data-original-width="1968" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxSt6GDpYAdCkWzFPQ65_J0hcCDa0oHtgvp8M-wiQIXdgh4VLdwrCIjpDA3cR5v2VrFlVn1QgV0B_ZxW98JS18ti55-06pBYvRmVc6O_X9lsoHRLuCJiDVlqDcLrPT4JwXkb81FOB_rps476c3IYqXFfC7iiKaCloYbFI4nzDxpUcIVHGBFlDoTYW6Eg/s320/QUAY%20CAT%20COLLAGE.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div>River Quay would watch TV with me, he seemed to really like the weather for it would flip screen to screen and the scroll running across the bottom of the Court TV show I watched.

We loved Mom!<p><span id="docs-internal-guid-b9dd3508-7fff-b153-f820-b9ac3d409c03"><span style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today is my Mom’s birthday. She absolutely loved her birthdays. Raising 6 kids all those years she didn’t get much attention. So this day was her day. She loved the gifts and the attention. She wanted us all together. She was an Angel on earth. In our home there was never any physical punishment, just respect for each other. The house was always clean, laundry done daily, fridge full of food and any dessert you wanted! None of us kids ever left the house without clean perfectly pressed clothes, shiny shoes, bright white anklets, perfectly styled hairdos, except to play outside then we wore our play clothes. She loved her birthday presents and cakes, but most of all having the “kids” for a day together. She was small built, always around 100 pounds, but was the strongest and smartest person I ever knew when it came to financial decisions and the tragic loss of my brother. She did what she had to do. She worked every evening in my dad’s janitor service from 5pm in the evening to early morning. Then slept a few hours and was up at 6am dressed, doing household chores and getting 6 kids up and off to school. I only saw her cry twice when her mother passed away and when Marty was killed. She was the strong one, my Dad crumbled. She loved all the kids in our neighborhood, especially Debbie. Debbie and her were great friends after I left home. Yes, her birthdays were special and she was a very special lady, She didn’t have a title like the Queen. but was more “royal” to me than the Queen. If I could just have one more day to tell her how very special she was and always will be to me. I have many holes in my heart, but the largest one is filled with memories of me and Mom. This woman at one time in the 1950’s had 5 children under 7, living in a house with no electricity, no indoor plumbing and an out house! Yes we were poor but very, very happy and loved by Mom. </span></span></p><p><span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn1ytXbsyvyvCFj35t9qtozw48e5y45XRBRPpn8GJWBeIGzyvj7sV4SwhCk_OLEO8xMjJU-Ex_Q1fyyH0EmY63YXTLFp-NldnfxsaQEiKmSDSIYd3EGRyOSZ7hXmHWXDcK8N_Fnb8EAybll-jBG03AWbvVM5cUCpmw5P03akf3Z9NX_A6jLphIP52XIw/s1600/slideview-11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

She always ate small meals, she called it "piecing" She loved crackers and milk, jello with fruit cocktail and </span>bananas. We never sat down to a full meal. My Dad who was a Policeman worked strange hours, there were six of us kids and we all went in different directions. There was always food but we never ate at the same time. My Mom was little, she always weighted around 90-100 pounds. My Dad did most of the cooking even if it was 11pm at night, He would fry up some Pork Chops, turn the Untouchable's on TV and make a night of it after working very hard all evening. Dining was on the living room coffee table! It was a fun life, very carefree! </span></p>Kaye Brittinghamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04231860076677552990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465759485822547667.post-91122816190665927572022-01-24T14:34:00.003-06:002022-01-24T14:34:36.907-06:00Marty, Attic Cleaning Find (from 3rd grade) <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

My grandparents lived by a digital clock that sat upon their television in the living room. It had a large display, black background, and red digits. And it was always seven to nine minutes fast. They owned their own janitorial service from the late 1960s until they retired in mid-1990s. When 5 o’clock came around, as the day was winding down for most of us, my grandmother donned a blue button down shirt and dark pants and grandfather put on his boots and hat to start the workday. I can recall them going out the door many times when we were visiting. They never missed a day of work or took a vacation.
While they were away, my mother and I would go out for burgers or pizza, drive around town, or stay in and watch TV. Sometimes we would visit my grandparents at the banks or offices where they were working. I remember Papa putting dimes in a metal pop machine to get Sprite or RC Cola in glass bottles for us at Citizen’s State Bank. I remember going into the pitch black darkrooms at the Nevada Daily Mail or the strong scent of newsprint and ink from the presses. The office buildings smelled of smoke. Brass nameplates were the only indication of who occupied the seats. There were no computers on desks; if they had one, it was in a room by itself.</div><div>When their work was done, around 10:45 or 11, they packed the Kirby vacuum cleaners, buckets, and mops back into their Blue Chevy Suburban to come home. We would usually be sitting in a dark living room watching reruns of “The Twilight Zone” or “Lost in Space” on Channel 41. They would come in through the old wooden front door with a skeleton key. After saying hello, my grandmother would be off to shower then take her place on the couch to relax. For my grandfather, it was time to make dinner and prepare a feast in the living room before stretching out on the floor in front of the TV to watch Johnny Carson.
But when the clock said 11:11, my grandmother would always say “make a wish.” I have always wondered what she wished for.

Thus, the story got very convoluted. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">The story was "Joseph Samuel Evans was in Lane, Alta OK. horse trading, got into a fight with a man over a horse, shot and killed him and was hung/lynched on the spot" Well, after many, many hours of researching this story and spending $15.00 sent to Lane, Alta OK to ask for research on a Lynching of Joseph Samuel Evans in 1893 to no avail. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I began researching old Bates County Historical Newspapers to vindicate this story; I ran across the "true" story, quite by accident of an event that he was involved in, killed a man by stabbing (his Father-In -Law W.P. Smith), went to trail and was acquitted. (the details in the newspaper articles above) </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Joseph Samuel Evans was born in 1938 MT. Sterling Montgomery Kentucky in 1893 (unable to find the month or day), he was married 3 times and had 13 children. He married Julia Anderson in 1861(marriage certificate, no proof of a divorce, he seemed to have abandoned his family and moved to Butler Missouri) Took up living with Mary Smith 1869 (no proof of a marriage certificate found) (daughter of the man he was accused of killing W.P. Smith) after her early death he married my Mom's Dad's Mother, my Great Grandmother, Sarah Elizabeth Richards-Standiford in 1885. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Joseph Samuel Evans died in Butler, Bates county in 1893 and was buried at The Double Branch Cemetery, he was age 55. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">I have yet to find a death certificate for the state of Missouri did not start keeping death records until 1910. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My Mom <u>ALWAYS </u>talked of a Grandma White who she said raised her Dad, George Robert and his brother John William Evans. My Mom loved this lady, she said she was the nicest and most loving woman, she thought so highly of her. When Grandma White was aging an ill she mailed my Mom pictures of her Dad, George Robert, the only pictures my Mom ever had of him. I am still researching Grandma White, I know she owned a farm next to Joseph and Sarah Evans but have hit a brick wall on any additional information about her. "White" is a hard name to research. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I put 2 and 2 together and came up with when Joseph Samuel Evans died their Mother, Sarah Elizabeth Richards-Standiford-Evans abandoned her 4 children, Lola, Major, George Robert, John and left the state to live with her brother in </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(24, 26, 28); color: #181a1c; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Galena, Kent, Maryland </span></span><span style="font-size: x-large;">as proof; the 1900 census for her. I found Lola and Major living in a boarding home in Butler at ages 13 and 10 respectively attending school with no evidence of a Mother or Guardian. I guess the lady my Mom knew as Grandma White took in Grandpa Evans, age 9 and Uncle John, age 7 (I still have not found any evidence of where Uncle John was in 1900 I am assuming with Grandma White after the census was recorded)?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I am glad I have cleared up a "myth" about my Great Grandfather, Joseph Samuel Evans and know my Great Grandmother Sarah Elizabeth Richards-Standiford-Evans-Vancil was an evil, uncaring mother and a cruel hearted person. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My Mom asked me to research her family before she passed away in 2008. It was years after this I found the family history on ancestry and the stories she wanted me to validate for her.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My name is Sandra Kaye Brittingham, this family history is for for my Mom, Bertha Louise Evans-Brittingham and my Grandpa, George Robert Evans, Aunt Lola, Uncle Major Bennett and Uncle John, who I never really knew. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">God Bless all of them, it was not an easy life for any of them. </span></p><p><br /></p>Kaye Brittinghamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04231860076677552990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465759485822547667.post-70743227038428469152021-02-21T17:10:00.002-06:002021-02-21T17:10:53.405-06:00<div class="bi6gxh9e" data-block="true" data-editor="8g3p7" data-offset-key="78jp4-0-0" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 8px;"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="78jp4-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="78jp4-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="78jp4-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjVS4k3LMkSjqh12pQzVpz02yx90SIX6vr-y08_Ghx93Gmhdh5IcWUz0SgLBunncYxtlrMq8CUXIZ294QIxXI6sE8anwpmrwNeBov37kf44X8xwhzq_IOzg5zZZv_kIAuMe6D_IPhUj5mg/s653/__opt__aboutcom__coeus__resources__content_migration__mnn__images__2016__12__Baby-Chickens-Chicks-Box-9f0f95b0ac094825ae17dc9617127c0d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="434" data-original-width="653" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjVS4k3LMkSjqh12pQzVpz02yx90SIX6vr-y08_Ghx93Gmhdh5IcWUz0SgLBunncYxtlrMq8CUXIZ294QIxXI6sE8anwpmrwNeBov37kf44X8xwhzq_IOzg5zZZv_kIAuMe6D_IPhUj5mg/s320/__opt__aboutcom__coeus__resources__content_migration__mnn__images__2016__12__Baby-Chickens-Chicks-Box-9f0f95b0ac094825ae17dc9617127c0d.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBJIvJlRvtirMW0J0oaK4tLYoTTWGsqCuva5dY1xn6UMCTmoCSS2LD4Wqi9KHtISR3cx9DsC0kTmp_Nq0pXhGxl1V0hBK0Ey0Ga1bZNAGsjr4F908VNnRsZxcvO5TCvrNM5JmEc-EZSnxM/s870/THURMAN+GALEN+LIGHTING+HORSE.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="580" data-original-width="870" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBJIvJlRvtirMW0J0oaK4tLYoTTWGsqCuva5dY1xn6UMCTmoCSS2LD4Wqi9KHtISR3cx9DsC0kTmp_Nq0pXhGxl1V0hBK0Ey0Ga1bZNAGsjr4F908VNnRsZxcvO5TCvrNM5JmEc-EZSnxM/s320/THURMAN+GALEN+LIGHTING+HORSE.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="78jp4-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>When</span><span data-offset-key="78jp4-1-0" style="font-family: inherit;"> we were kids on Main Street for Easter my Dad would take us to the Hatchery uptown off the Square and he bought us a box of baby chicks.

He had the Raccoon in the living room and it got mean, it was hissing and went wild so that Raccoon got let loose outside of town somewhere!</span></div></div><div class="bi6gxh9e" data-block="true" data-editor="8g3p7" data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 8px;"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">I had a pet Peigeon named Homer, he always came to our laundry room window at the back of the house and I fed him. Then my Mom would let him into the laundry room. I would take him into the living room on my shoulder and I would talk to him and he would "bird talk back" he was so cool. One day he went missing and my friend Debbie and I found him at the bottom of the neighbors trash can. It had rained and he got caught by a dog. </span></div><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span data-offset-key="1co6k-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">Galen did not go on to be a Farmer or big time Rancher, not even a Veterinarian, he did become an Attorney so in his practice I hope he helped someone with the city ordinances that pertain to keeping farm animals in your back yard in the city!</span></div></div><p><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></p><div class="bi6gxh9e" data-block="true" data-editor="8g3p7" data-offset-key="3qa9p-0-0" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: inherit; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; margin-bottom: 8px; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"></div>Kaye Brittinghamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04231860076677552990noreply@blogger.com0
