Us for inviting the legendary ladies to visit with you today. The women of the west were quite varied. You need only look at the costumes they were and listens to the stories they told to understand this. Some women came west with husbands or fathers who were in search of gold, or opportunity in the west. Often the landscape they encountered was quite different from the one they left behind.

Carolina. My mom and dad met while they were students at Friendship Junior College in iraq hill, South Carolina. After they both graduated from friendship, they moved permanently to great falls. Initially, they were both school teachers. You could be a schoolteacher at that time with just a Junior College education. My dad did not stay in teaching, because he discovered that what was listed on his contract as his per month payment was not the same as he was receiving. This was at a time when the boards of education for all composed of waste men, and so at the end of the year my father approached a person who was a scientist voucher for a payment. He said i noticed that there is a discrepancy here. It was a five dollar difference between what he was supposed to be paid and what he was receiving. For questioning the five dollar differential, which the School Board Member was pocketing, my father was terminated as a teacher. My mother continued to be a teacher. In fact, my first seven yea
