Memories of the Calls

Several years ago, Alden Malvern Jones (1915-2010)  shared typed transcripts of two manuscripts, "Memories of the Calls" and "Coe History" written by Elizabeth Ann Coe (1862-1956), wife of Charles Joslin Call (1859-1939).

In the letter that accompanied the transcripts, Alden wrote "In the mid 1930's Grandma Call (Elizabeth) set about to record the family history by interviewing Grandpa (Charles) Call and writing his recollections, then doing the same for herself. Because of the Depression, our family was living with them at that time. So I vivedly remember some of the anecdotes which she relates, especially about the twins in later days."

The following posts have the information shared in the Memories of the Calls. Posts are listed in the order they appear in the original transcript.
