Robert, the youngest of this family was born in 1924 and died Dec 14, 1931, after only 7 years. William started out as a peddler in New Albany in 1901, and for the most part continued to raise and peddle vegetables most of his life. During the 4 years that this family lived in Elwood, In. (1918-1921) William worked at Elwood Tin Plate factory on night shift from 4-12. He would walk to and from work daily, about 4 mile each way. Since he had to walk and it was cold during the winter months, Lula bought him a heavy coat to keep him warm. She said she paid 50 cents a week on the coat until it was paid for. ______________________________________________________________
