Bonny and David,
I am not trying to sell uncle Granville short for what he did
after Papa Hough passed away.I just want to confirm what Uncle Granville had said many a time.Papa Hough was
not able to do a full days work for a while before he passed away. I just want to try and set the records straight as to
my father.My dad help Papa Hough from the time he finished High School at age 17 until he was just pass 22,
at which time he was married in Sept 1935. He continued to help Uncle Granville for 2-3 years even after he was married
to care for the younger boys and his mother.He lived in the small house about a 1/4 mile south of the old Hough place.
I am also getting a little old,but to best of my memory, the boys moved over to Great-Grandfather Richardson place in
the late 30's I just dont think my father would have abandoned Uncle Granville at the young age of 13 to work
a place of 158 acres.Uncle Granville spoke to be about it,as did my father.This is not part of Unce granville's legacy,but
my father also spoke of his brother Clifford and his Mother
both cheating him out of his inheritance from his father,which all seven brother signed over to my Grandmother their share with the understanding that Clifford
would receive 1/2 and my father 1/2.I know first hand that my father not only did not get the 1/2,but was cheated out of his original 1/8th. My father,Uncle Harold,Uncle Rudolph,
Uncle Roland all filed suit,but my father passed away before
it was ever settled.I never asked Uncle Granville or Uncle Donald where they stood on this matter.If you have never heard anything about this, and want to know, I have all the documentation from 1962 until 1984.
As I said this is not no sell uncle Granville short,he did his share.So did my dad.
