Notes
a. Note:   A very small rounded woman. The Knight eyes. She wrote a story of her journey to the states, but it seems a little mixed up. (It was published by Harold Chilton in 1933.) The travel route for one, and a few other things. From what I have read on her and her husbands, her first husband was nice, but she didn't think so, and finally left him, and married Robert Kennedy whom all desendants say was a wonderful man. He raised her children and they adopted two more. They lived in Nebraska, and died by her daughters home in Redlands, California. (daughter Irene). The story her grt grandaughter (Cora Dial) wrote was kind of sad, and she had a few letters, Becca had sent home. She was lonley for her family. They had a daughter who was thrown from a horse but her foot was caught in the stirrup's and he dragged her quit away's, which resulted in a crippled hip. I do not know which daughter. In her story while they were crossing Lake Michigan by a Boat carrying 600 people. " There was a big storm, and the water came into the boat shoe deep. The Captain called all down to the lower decks, and all at once there was a big Crash! The boat had sprung a leak! Father put his arms around us two little ones and said "I guess we will all go down" My 8 year old sister (Esther) said " If one gets drowned, I hope we will all go" She thought it would be sad for those who would be left behind." This is just an insert of some of her stories of their travels here to the States. Her and Robert adopted 2 children, When she wrote her story she had Silas still alive and age 78 so that makes the year she wrote the story about 1914 while she was still in Oregon.
