Notes

Henry worked in post office Greenwood Ky with his sister "Mag". Magola and he were kind of like midgets. They never married and Magola was postmaster in Greenwood Ky. House was on Highway 27

Note that her parents were Lewis's and Ballou's as were her grandparents. June Avera, Somerset, said that there were about 5 stillborn children besides Magolia and her living siblings.
As a 14 year old , i richard curtis, stayed a week or two with Mag in here old family home in Greenwood Ky. It was notable that in 1971, the home did not have running water, indoor plumbing or electricity. Mag cooked on a wood stove, had an outhouse and a well for water. This home where. She had been raised was a step back in time and quite an experience for a boy raised in the suburbs of Louisville Ky.
