Note: he was born in 1903. Later her sister Mary told her that she was two years older than she thought she was. Her delayed birth certificate shows her being born November 1, 1901. Dorthy Arments's information showed her being born November 1, 1900. The 1910 census shows her as 6 years old. That would make her seven on Nov. 1 that year and would make her born in 1903. The 1910 census shows her as Eda instead of Edith. When she was alive and she told us the names of her brothers and sisters, she always ended with "and little Eed". Some of her family probably called her that when she was a child.
There is a story that my mother, Eva Morehead Dymond, told me (Virgil) when I was a child. She said that my father had sent a ticket or money for a train ticket to Mom's older sister, Mary, for her to come from Blair, Nebraska to Lewiston, Idaho to marry him. Mom intercepted the letter and without Mary's knowledge came instead of Mary. It sounded like a dirty trick, but I am glad that she did as I wouldn't be here if Mary had got the letter. Years later my cousin, Harriet Rich who was in Lewiston at the time told me the same story. Harriet said that she didn't know whether to tell me the story or not. My mother and her sister were friendly when I was a kid and wrote letters to each other. I am not sure of the year but it must have been around 1950. Dad and Mom drove from Spokane to Blair Nebraska and visited Mary. They brought her back to Spokane with them when they came home. I met Mary at Mom and Dad's house. Later, Mary took the train back home to Blair.
