Suzanne, this is true love. How beautiful to have these letters. My mom's parents were both from Kentucky. My grandfather's family were clay miners in Soldier, Kentucky, also known as Olive Hill. I wish we had letters like this. I write letters for them via my imagination. Thank you for posting this treasure.
Thank you, Rebby! Love this Kentucky connection. This gives me added inspiration to keep posting. I've got letters scheduled to post every Sunday at 4 pm. They wrote each other almost every day, so the least I can do is post weekly. They were from Blackey, Kentucky - coal country. I'll have to look up Soldier/Olive Hill!
Soldier is in the northeast corner of the state. Have you been to the places your relatives lived? I have not. I would love to visit there. I am in a FB group called Abandoned Kentucky. They post old homes and buildings. Sometimes people know the stories. Before she died, my mom and I loved perusing those images and writing our own stories...

Thank you. Real life and the simple ways are lovely.
Thank you, Ann. I love living in their world, and sharing it with others.
