This is a re-published book because much was left out of the first one, and I would like to correct any mistakes that I found. One book would not hold half of what I need to share. This is book one, of two. The first one especially is about Harley and Laura Krigbaum (Pa and MA), who lived a simple life with many trials but always seemed to have a positive attitude and much needed advise. They were born in 1893, not long after the Civil War. Life was not easy for either family.His family had come to Arkansas from Ohio after devastating circumstances and tried to make a better life for their family. Managing to get homesteads, they became farmers and worked together anytime they could. Harley was the youngest and was born shortly after arriving in Arkansas.Laura was born and raised near Driggs. Her parents were both teachers at Barn Hill and at Driggs. Laura was familiar with farm work also, but on a smaller scale, just raising food to eat. They lived most of their lives near Driggs and Paint Rock communities and saw each other often but with no thoughts of ever being together, until one afternoon just before harvest time, which changed their lives forever.The stories of their ancestors as we sat out in the yard each evening, giving Pa a break from his fiddle and allowing the house time to cool enough to sleep, were so amazing that I had to try to share at least some of them.The adventurous travel by wagon from Ohio to Arkansas, the morning of the school with horses, picking cotton in Oklahoma, Snow in the cabin, and many more. Some happy, some very sad, especially the Indian story.Much of this book is as accurate as I could make it, however, Pa loved a good story, so more of it is from my imagination.
