Mom's School Books & a Giveaway

4/30/2012

Picture
Have you ever wondered what your parents learned in school?

My mom knows I like books, especially old ones, and she gave me a box of them a while back. I found them again while looking for some old photo albums.

It wasn't until I opened them that I realized they were her old Grade 7 & 8 school books.

If you've been following Mamma's Memoirs which I presented in four parts, you'll know my mom was Mary, the middle Kakkonen daughter. However, when they started school, Pappa and Mamma changed their last name to Henrekson. At least that's how Mamma wrote it in her Memoirs.

On this post, I'll show you how my mom wrote it as Mary Hendrickson.

The image to the left and below is Mom's Arithmetic book. What strikes me as funny is the stickers. I didn't know they had stickers back in the 50's. If you look close, the stickers say, "Made in Czechoslovakia." I wonder where she got them.

Literature?

Picture
Picture
Dark Horse is a novel so I'm assuming it was a literature class. It lists my mother, Mary, and her brothers, William and David, which signifies it was handed down. Since William - or Billy as everyone called him - died in a highway accident when he was only 16 (as mentioned in part 4 of Mamma's Memoirs) this is the only thing I have that ever belonged to him. I never met my Uncle Billy as Mom was carrying me at the time of the accident.

Also, the name at the top of this page, Grace Spillenaar, brings warm memories to mind because the Spillenaar family was very good friends with Mamma while they lived in the area. A missionary family, the Spillenaars moved a few hours south to Round Lake where they started a ministry preaching the gospel to the Inuit. I remember John and Tyyne Spillenaar’s bush plane with "Wings of the Gospel" written on the side. John Spillenaar is the founder of Arctic Missions Outreach.

However, what got me wondering if this book really was for literature class was the book itself. If you read the first page below, the character has smoked his cigarette to the stub and is wishing he had a cold bottle of beer. In a Grade 8 school book? Really?
Picture
Picture
Picture
This may not have been a school book. I have half a dozen books which my mom bought as an adult through the Doubleday Book Club and she wrote her name in the front of each one.

With Mom using these books in 1951/52 means they're over 60 yrs old. Wow.

Mamma's Memoirs Final Part & Giveaway

Mamma's Memoirs Final Part
by Anita Mae Draper

This is the 4th and final post of the memoirs of Tyyne Henrekson.
Part 1 - Mamma's early years in Finland
Part  2 - Meeting and marrying Pappa and emigrating to Canada
Part 3 - Early Life in Canada and Birth of the Children

We left off in 1950 when Pappa and Mamma and their 6 children moved out of the 3 room log house and into the new house, pictured below.
Picture
1950 The New House, on the right is a corner of the old log house.
In Mamma's Memoirs, she didn't write about this period - probably because she  was too busy raising the kids and running the farm. If you recall, they had 10 cows and were selling their milk and cream. So the first half of this post is pictures of the children during these years.

Any writing you see on the photos are in Mamma's own hand

When the girls got married, I took two Children's Aid boys from Kapuskasing so we had five little school boys.  When the Honey boys were 16 years old, I told the lady (a social worker) to look for a place for them.  During the summer the boys should be learning a man's job. 
My husband was always working at the camp so he wasn't at home to teach them. The boys were taken to Cochrane for work.  They were very good boys, Bill and Bob Honey.

After that I put an ad in the Finnish Canadian Newspaper. For the homeless I would take in feed and care for.

Accident:

We had three girls and three boys.  But after the Honey boys were taken to Cochrane in 1958, we had an accident on the highway, when the gaspipeline was brought to Hearst. 

My husband was driving our Ferguson tractor and he had eleven bags of potatoes.  Our 15 year old boy, Billy, was sitting on top of the potatoes.  From behind, just before the road at
mile 7, came a pipeline tractor trailer very fast.  It was Saturday, the young men were partying in the car.  The car drove beside, but the long trailer went over our tractor, when the driver wanted to turn left.


The men from the car saw the quick bang throw my husband off in the air (he was driving the tractor). Billy's legs were badly damaged.  A neighbour, Mrs. Mouland called for an ambulance.  An ambulance was there soon.  The doctor amputated Billy's legs, but he never woke up.  He was brought to the same room with his dad, and he watched the boy die.  My
husband also was hurt badly.  But I am glad that Billy died instead of being a cripple without legs.  He was a Christian, ready for heaven.

Conclusion:

If I could count all my family now -- but they are so far.  I don't even know all the names of the great, great grandchildren. 

Picture
My sister, Bonnie Margaret, 1 yr old, who was born on Mamma & Pappa's farm in 1956.

That concludes Mamma's handwritten Memoirs, but it's not the end of Mamma's story...

In 1980 while still living on the farm, Mamma and Pappa celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. The bulletin board behind them is Mamma's memory board. Photos of children and grandchildren and cards would be put here. Every morning, Mamma would touch each one and pray for that child.
Picture
In 1987 we had a family reunion at the Ryland farm when Mamma and Pappa's oldest daughter, Taimi, came back to Canada on a visit from England where she had moved with her young family in the 60's.  I used the opportunity to take 2 precious photos - the first being an updated photo of the 3 Kakkonen sisters...
Picture

... and the second, a 4 generation photo with Mamma - Tynne, her 2nd oldest child - Mary who happens to be my mom, me - Anita Mae, and my eldest child - Crystal Anne.
Picture

In 1992, Mamma wrote her Memoirs - the very same ones I've portrayed over these 4 posts.
In 1995 after almost 70 yrs on their Ryland farm, Mamma and Pappa moved six hours west to a Finnish retirement community in the city of Thunder Bay on the northwestern shore of Lake Superior.
 
Pappa passed away a few months later.
Picture
Tynne Hendrickson, 89 yrs old, 1997
Mamma went to see Jesus in 2003 at the age of 94 yrs.

It seems only right to end this post the way we started... in Mamma's own words...

Picture
Love's quest leads her the world over.

Dandelion Dering was born a peasant in the English village of Arun, but her soul yearned for another life, another world. One filled with color and music, with adventure and passion  . . . with more. Haunted by childhood memories, Dandelion determines to find a better existence than the life every peasant in the village contents themselves with. Even if her sweetheart William’s predictions prove true, and her journey leads straight to heartache.

From her sleepy hamlet to the intrigue of castle life, from the heart of London to the adventurous seas, Dandelion flees from the mistakes of her past, always seeking that something, that someone who will satisfy her longings. Will Dandelion ever find
the rhythm to her life's dance . . . or did she leave her chance for true love at home in Arun village?

Jennifer AlLee: Daughters and Mothers Together & Giveaway

4/15/2012

31 Comments

 
This week we welcome back Jennifer AlLee to Author Memories.
Picture
Jennifer AlLee believes the most important thing a woman can do is discover her identity in God – a theme that carries throughout her stories. 

She has written skits, activity pages, and over one hundred contributions to Concordia Publishing House’s popular My Devotions series.

A multi-published novelist in the Women's Fiction genre, Jennifer has two novels releasing this year alone.

Jennifer resides in the grace-filled city of Las
Vegas with her husband and teenage son.
 

Daughters and Mothers Together
by Jennifer AlLee

I come from a long line of stubborn…eh…strong women. Just look at this picture. Four generations gathered together. You might think we were all in one place because it was a holiday or some other special occasion. It may have been (since someone had to take the picture) but in truth, we were always together. 

If you read my earlier Author Memories story, you may remember that I grew up in
Hollywood, CA in an apartment above a mortuary. That’s where all four of us women lived. Let me introduce you...
Picture
(L to R) Meta Wittrock (my great-grandmother), Marie Staats (grandma), Jennifer (me), and Rose-Marie Taylor (mom).
From the left we have Meta Wittrock (my great-grandmother), Marie Staats (grandma), Jennifer (me), and Rose-Marie Taylor (mom). We started out living in three different apartments , but since my mom was divorced and the other two were widowed, we eventually all ended up sharing the biggest of the apartments, which was my grandmother’s.
 
Interestingly enough, they continued to rent the other two. I remember that great-grandma’s apartment was tiny, but full of fun stuff, like her piano, her doll collection, and a bed so big you had to crawl over it to get to the kitchenette. And mom’s old apartment was where my
dog, Tinkerbell, lived. It was also where we went to do the laundry on an old, forest-green, barrel-shaped machine with a crank-by-hand ringer. Then we’d take the wet clothes to the roof and hang them on the line to dry. Yes, my friends, all this was in the heart of Holly-weird.
 
You might be wondering how we ended up living above a mortuary at all. Well, they all worked there at one time or another. My grandmother (the former ballet dancer) pretty much ran the place, meeting people and being a PR expert. My great-grandmother (the former beautician) prettied up the dearly departed by doing their hair and makeup. And my mother (when she wasn’t working one block away as the switchboard operator at The Broadway department store on the corner of Hollywood and Vine) filled in from time to time doing more
office-related jobs. Because of this setup, there was almost always someone upstairs with me when one of the others was off working.

Growing up in a house full of women has its benefits, but it also gets confusing. I never could figure out which one to call “Grandma” and which to call “Great-grandma.”At one point, I started addressing my great-grandmother as “Grandma” and my grandmother as “Great Marie.” Finally, someone decided it would be easier if I just called my grandmother by her first name, a solution which simplified my life, but confused the women of the First
Baptist Church’s Berean Bible Study group.

Picture
Great grandma and Jenny at Patty's Wedding
One thing I learned from these women was the importance of respecting your elders. The picture above is of my great-grandmother and I at the wedding of my Sunday School teacher, Patty. I was a flower girl. My mom wanted to make sure I didn’t wander off at the reception, so she told me to “take care of Grandma.” Apparently, I took my charge very seriously. She says I never left great-grandma’s side. From the expression on my face, I’d say no one was going to cross me and mess with my grandma! 

The relationship between mothers and daughters is a complex one, full of joys and sorrows, ups and downs. Looking at these pictures brings back only the good memories, the things that make me smile. Maybe today would be a good day for you to pull out your photo album or scrapbook and take a sentimental stroll down memory lane. Enjoy the journey! 

How about you? Have you ever lived in a multi-generational home? What have the elder women in your family taught you?

The Mother Road, Abingdon Press, Apr 2012

Picture
Sometimes, the end of the road is just the beginning.

Natalie Marino has made a career writing about happily-ever-afters, making her own life an open book in order to help others. She never expected her husband, to come home one day and demand a divorce so he can be with his pregnant mistress. To Natalie, who's struggled with infertility, it's the worst betrayal imaginable. She's still dealing with the shock when her father calls, delivering another blow: Her mother's Alzheimer's has progressed. He wants Natalie and her sister to come
home while she can still recognize them.

Desperate for a change of scenery, Natalie decides a road trip is in order, even if her estranged sister isn't the most obvious travelling companion. She and Lindsay will take Route 66 – the mother road – from Santa Monica, California, to their childhood home in Illinois. But when she picks up her sister, she's in for another shock: Lindsay is pregnant.

In a road trip that's one part Lucy and Ethel, one part Thelma and Louise, the two sisters trade snarky barbs, visit quirky tourists spots, and dodge Ben, Lindsay's ex-boyfriend turned stalker. Will their trip down the mother road bring the two sisters closer together, or turn out to be the biggest wrong turn yet?

WW2 Ammo-Making Equipment & LIS Giveaway

4/8/2012

33 Comments

 
This week we look at WW2 Ammo-Making Equipment on Author Memories.
Picture
This is Part 2 of the WW2 memorabilia sent back to Canada by Nelson Clement Draper while serving in Europe during that war. The note on the back of the picture says, "Nelson Draper (L) and Nellis Sinclair (R) pretending to actually work filling the manure spreader.

Part 1 was the post before this one.


WW2 Ammo-Making Equipment
by Anita Mae Draper

Last week we showed the kit effects from Uncle Nelson's box of WW2 memorabilia. This time, we look at all the ammunition making equipment. Again, I stress that no one in hubby Nelson's family remembers where Uncle collected this equipment or who it belonged to but we'd like to know at least the country of the soldier(s) who carried it.

The Small Bullet Mold
Picture
The mold in the open position.
Picture
The mold interior is about 90mm from tip to cap end.

Same position, different view.

In the closed position and flipped over.

Bullet Mold ?

Picture
This mold is about 2" longer than the smaller one above.
Picture
The hole is open to the other side, but the little screw beneath it means something when through here.
Picture
Not sure if anything is missing from here. It's so old, we can't budge it open.
Picture
Manufactured by THE WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS CO, PAT MARCH 17 91

Shotgun Fillers?

Picture
The inside diameter is 80mm.
Picture
The inside diameter is 100mm.
Picture
Folded as you would fill the shells.
Picture
Folded in the travel position. The left one is probably brass, the right cast iron?
As you can see from the photos, there are 4 different sizes here - 2 for bullets and 2 for shotgun shells - but those are only guesses. The only one with marking is the mold with the Winchester label that we haven't been able to open

Does anyone know what soldiers would have used these? Were they even used in the WW2 theater?  Any information is appreciated.

Uncle Nelson's WW2 Kit Memorabilia & LIS Giveaway

4/1/2012

25 Comments

 

This week we look at WW2 Kit Memorabilia on Author Memories.

Picture
It's Anita Mae and this week I'm bringing a story from my husband's past. His Uncle Nelson was in WW2 and sent a box of memorabilia back to his family. My husband and his uncle share the name of Nelson Clement Draper and while growing up whenever they got together they were referred to as Big Nelson and Little Nelson.  

My husband, Little Nelson, smiles whenever he talks about Big Nelson. They spent hours playing cards together with the family. Big Nelson passed away a few years after Little Nelson joined the military and shortly before I came on the scene back in the mid 70's.   

Uncle Nelson's WW2 Memorabilia
by Anita Mae Draper

Sometime during our early marriage, my husband's father handed over a box of World War 2 kit memorabilia his brother had acquired and shipped over from Europe. Nelson doesn't think the personal kit effects belonged to his Uncle Nelson. Rather, he thought his uncle had picked them up as souvenirs of the war. The pieces have always sat on the top shelf of an old secretary in our bedroom. The box also contained a German helmet with a swastika on the side but I didn't feel comfortable with it in my room, so we packed it away. 
 
As for these items, I've posted photos of manufacturers and identifying symbols wherever I could. If anyone has any information about these items, please leave a comment.

The Cartridge Belt

The first batch of photos are from what I'm guessing is a cartridge belt although I'm not sure if
it was issued together or if the belt was a personal effect:
Picture
Complete cartridge belt as received
Picture
Belt buckle 6.5cm x 9cm brass(?)
Picture
I can only make out the 4th word as "Belt"
Picture
All pockets/pouches look the same inside.

These next 4 photos show the still-working compass.

Picture
Compass opened flat.
Picture
Back side of open compass.
Picture
"U.S. Engineer Corps" from back of lid.
Picture
"3114 Made in Switzerland" from bottom of compass platform.

Brass Powder Flask

Picture
The lever on the top right still works good.
Picture
Picture
"DIXON & SONS"
Picture
Looks like "I O D"
There are still 4 more items, however they are all ammunition-making equipment and will keep for another post. I suspect the powder flask would have been part of the ammo making equipment which includes bullet molds and shotgun fillers but I really don't know for sure.

Again, if you have any information on the above items, please let us know. Uncle Nelson was in the Canadian Army but most of the equipment is American manufactured. Presumably different governments bought their supplies from the U.S.

What do you think about all this?
