Figure 24: The Waiterses’
first home Catherine King Waiters and Archie Waiters were married in 1934 and moved to this house. Ms. Waiters recalled how they furnished the house. Waiters's mother gave them a bed; Ms. Waiters's mother gave them two chairs and a wood stove that had three legs and a stack of bricks for the fourth. Great-grandmother Irene Charles gave them an old dresser made of gopherwood, and a shelf on the wall held their dishes. A large fireplace heated the house. (Photo 1970s) |
