FROM A BLOG BY JOY ADAMS
Early in 2008, our son started to o a genealogy of the family that
arrived in Haxtun Colorado almost a hundred years ago and assumed the
Name Hardy. Two parents, and four children. 4 daughters and one son.
One of those daughter became the wife of Millard Pope, (Helen Hardy)
Pope .
The son married my mother, Florence Hunt. It's Florence (Hunt) Hardy
that is related to Charley Hunt, a cook on the railroad
and my Great Uncle whom I met.
My whole bio is a convoluted one also. My birth certificate is from one
state , but in 1963, when Aunt Helen and Uncle Millard Pope visited us
not long before Doyle and I got married when I visited Colorado in the 50's for the first? time; I
remembered the place near the home my parents had owned adjacent to the
property where my Aunt Grace and Bill Hackett lived near Haxtun
Colorado. That was the original home a hundred years ago of
the family.
Aunt Helen got in her car and
we followed her to their home. We then went into Holyoke, Colorado
where behind one of those small grocery stores in many small towns in
those years when there were no super markets or even gas station
convenience stores was where Great Uncle Charley Hunt lived . He had
been a cook for the railroad and married twice and had two separate
families. few furnishings and a new wood stove, simple life. He had a
railroad pension. My mother's Uncle, her dad's brother, Sherman Tecumseh
Hunt who then lived in California. . he had a picture of his one
daughter that lived in Texarkana on a stand. He said he had just got the
new wood stove. They were married in the Methodist church in Ft Anne, Ny
in 1963 and had either 9 or 11 children.
Great Uncle Charley told about his children. first had two daughters.
One , whom mother always called Bessie lived with her family for awhile
as a teenager and real name was Marjorie Lorriane Hunt and first husband
was Dickey. She played softball and got divorced in an era when that
was a scandal. I left great Uncle Charley's with all
kinds of info.
I have report cards of my mother and she was an A student as far as she went through part of high school. she was expected to drop out and help at home she had later learned that a doctor from Lincoln medical school had heard how she had taken care of her whole family in 1919 Flu epidemic and wanted her to come and work and go to nursing school there and her parent did not tell her. she was only 14. Mom did not think there was any ulterior motive other than recognition of her ability. My Mom was the oldest of 16 children. Some of whom born after she left home. Times were so different for women not so long ago. Younger generations really have no concept before the era of civil rights. . Linda Joy Adams 10/12/12
