- Excepts from Ethel Hand Armstong's Story "A FAMILY NAMED HAND"
...
We got off the train at Howe, Indiana. I think that father's mother still lived there and mothers' parents lived there and her only brother Lewellyn lived near by. I can just remember grandpa Green. His once red hair was grey and he had a long grey beard. He wore a red and black plaid Mackinaw jacket, the first one that I had ever seen. Grandma Green was short and chubby and was very wrinkly and had sharp dark eyes. Lewellyn had a large family and was cutting logs for a living at that time. He liked to be called Walter, his middle name because he didn't like Lewellyn. Father needed money too so we stayed there a while and father helped Uncle Walter cut logs. It was a two-man job because they had to be cut with a crosscut saw. I suppose we stayed with grandpa and grandma Green but I don't remember.

Excerpts from Ethel Hand Armstrong's Story
A FAMILY NAMED HAND
...
Once our parents and us visited the children of mother's only brother, Walt. (Marcia's note: Walt was a nick name. His name was Llewelyn Walter GREEN.) He was sick and could not take care of them.
There was quite a large family of them and there was no way to support them and the father would never be able to so they had been placed in a children's home in Indiana. Goldie and I felt so sorry for them because they could not remain and home without a father or mother and they were aware that their father was dying. Later mother's sister Sarah (Marcia's note: Maiden name Sarah Ann GREEN, married name with her 2nd husband Sarah Ann HALEY.) took the baby, a boy named Miles and raised him as her own. Other relatives took one or two others but all the older ones had to stay at the home until they were sixteen.
