Abt 1861 - 1952 (~ 91 years)
Generation: 1
1. | Laura Clark was born about 1861 in , , Louisiana, USA; died on 10 Oct 1952 in Winnfield, Winn Par., Louisiana, USA; was buried in Goldonna, Natchitoches Par. Louisiana, USA. Notes:
Laura told many stories about life on the farm after William left her shortly after Ellen's birth. The other children would help in the field, and she would leave one to watch the younger ones. She said the long dresses the babies wore had a good purpose. In the winter she would pull up a corner of the mattress, put the dress tail under and let the mattress back down and push the bed against the wall. In summer she would place the baby on the floor and put a table leg to hold the dress tight. There were no playpens, but this served as well. Also there were no toys to keep the younger ones occupied. She would just put syrup on their fingers and give them a feather. They would spend hours putting the feather from one hand to the other and sometimes she would place spider webs on the hands and no syrup was needed. When they reached the stage for teething, a knot from a tree or carrot or raw potato worked for a teething ring.
All the kids were bathed every night and dressed for play the next day. The only ironing was for the Sunday clothes. They went to church each Sunday. Laura was a Baptist or Pentacostal.
