Publisher Description: Joining this world in 1921, Lillian Frances Estell Ritchie was the second girl, the fourth of what would eventually be eight children born to John Henry and Nona Estell. Lillian grew up poor in rural Indiana. She saw the devastating effects of the depression first hand as her family moved ten times in sixteen years. She remembers having two dresses to wear during the Depression. She remembers when electricity and indoor plumbing became a part of her everyday life. She remembers WW2, Vietnam, man's first flight, Kennedy's assassination, and the landing of a man on the moon. She also experienced both great personal loss and triumph. And her story contains chickens, lots of chickens. |
