  • Notes 

    • From - Looking Backward by Robert Edwin Gunton, P. M., June 22nd 1933

      Aunt Harriet Jarvis married Archibald Thompson, who was a harnessmaker, but not a very successful business man. They had a family of five girls and one boy, very close together. My aunt, who was very proud and high strung, had a hard time to get along, and she died while her family was very young. Mother often expressed the opinion that she worried herself sick. After the death of the mother , the children were scattered , but with the assistance of relatives and kind friends, they all have done well and are a credit to themselves.
