Dear Mildred – Sorry to inform you I know very little about
mothers ancestors. Grandfather’s name was Zarabable and Grandmothers, Prudence
Carver Aydelott. Mother was six years old when she died. Grandfather was
eighty-one at his death. They lived at
West Cheacer Ohio, owned a small farm of 60 acres, a taylor shop in New York
City, financed by him, operated by a nephew, owned Indiana Coal Fields, Brazil
Indiana, he was worth $50,000.00 at one time. Father of seven children, four
girls and three boys. Grandfather spoke plain English, the name Aydelott would
indicate they were French. He was a
generous beauted man, helped mother and dad while they were raising their
family as much as $500.00 at a time.
They had hard time supporting their family as some of Dad’s family was always
with them. Grandfather was respected and
progressive. I heard mother say he liked his wine and brandy in the home. Thanks for your Christmas wishes, I am no
good at letter writing. It was nice to hear from you and give Guy and Zelda
situated in the same city, and how are they?
How are the girls? With Love to
all Pen824 W. 10th E

PS: You can see I am not equipped for letter writing and a
very bad scribe.
