That, I believe, was the family. But I’m only going by memory of stories & summer visits from Clayt & Howard. I know you guys probably stayed in closer contact. The Farmer’s were affluent ranchers on Feely Hill when a cattle disease swept through their herd & devastated them financially. They sold out & moved to a smaller ranch just south of Dillon. Mom *(Helen) lived with them while attending high school in Dillon before she moved to Butte with Dot to finish high school. I remember mom describing them as very warm, kind, & gentle people.

Let me know if I’ve missed any. Did you know that Grandad’s middle name, Oliver, was his mother Dora’s maiden name. She & Harrison married in ‘something’ Falls, WI.

I talked with Donna & Judy over the weekend. Boy was I wrong. They both agreed that the third Farmer boy’s name was Kenny, not Robert like I thought. But in my weakened mind’s defense, I remember that your dad was named after one of his uncle Farmers. So now I’m thinking maybe Kenny Robert Farmer??? Myrtle also had two sisters, Laila & Vella. Your mom will remember. I do not think I ever met them. But I remember our family talking about them. I don’t know the birth order.
