Helen Minich

Helen grew gardens, made soap, canned, made rugs, made cream by the barrel full, and sold it to a market in Tennessee. Raised Turkeys, butchered them and sold them by the barrel full to a market in Memphis, Tenn.

Durring the Winter she Carded the wool with a pair of hand cards, spun the tread on her spinning wheel, then knitted our stockings, socks, and gloves.

Medical remedy for sickness was a mixture o fkerosene, turpentine, and lard which was rubbed on and baked in.

In 1880 Helen and William with five children headed southwest by wagon train with five other families. After many weeks on the trail, they arrived in Missouri. They intended to go on, but fate decreed they remained there, where they spent their entire lives.
