ANNA LEOTA SAUVIGNY - MARRIED 8 JAN 1913 - EDGAR QUIGLEY
FAMILY SKETCH WRITTEN BY BERNICE HANSON - ABOUT HER GOOD MOTHER
Courtesy of Pat Smith
Dad had little or no education. Mother went to the Chamawa School with Matilda. As far as I know Mother only finished eighth grade. Mother and Father were the most kind and generous people ever. They very seldom punished us and I know now that we needed it a lot of times. Dad would always bring us a gift from Astoria each summer when he came home from fishing. I remember one of mine so well. He meant it really only as a joke - it was a little black hula hula doll on a string - when you bounced it up and down the grass skirt would fly around.
Mom was so proud of Junior and Boggie in football and basketball. She went to all the games. I can remember once when the Columbia River froze over. Dad took us sled riding on the ice. It was a terrific experience.
Mother was much younger than Dad. She was 13 when married and Dad was 33, 18 years apart, but they died only 6 months apart. Mother had been ill with heart and gall stones for years.
When the highway was constructed it ran right through our home that Mom and Dad had lived in for almost 40 years. It Hurt Mother so much to have to move that she became ill and grew steadily worse until her death. The old house had many memories. Inez and Junior were born there. We had cherry trees, pear and plum trees; and fine Gravenstein apples; Black and Royal Ann cherries.
Dad made fine nets. It is difficult to capture on paper the method he used. I know the linen thread came like yarn and we put it on home-made spindles that spun as he made it into a ball. With the ball of web we used the fish net needle that we filled. Dad made different size mesh for the various nets such as Diver and Floaters. He had a board he held in his left hand and knit with his right until the board was full, then he dropped it off and filled again.
Jay and I were married in Longview on the 1st of Feb 1936. Jay Willmer Hansen was born 1 Jun 1904 in Wood, Iowa; an eighth grade graduate. Mother's name, Minnie Jacobsen; Father's name, Oliver John Hansen.
