I
had a number of ancestors who lived in Sherman County Kansas. On 28
Oct 2017 I posted photos of the county seat, Goodland.
I
found this photo postcard among my father's collection. It shows a
little of how flat that part of the country is. No mountains show on
the horizon. The caption handwritten on the bottom says: “Highway
between Pa Albertson Place and Aunt Sis.” I believe that Pa
Albertson is my gt-grandfather, Nathan Elias Albertson, and Aunt Sis
is the sister of my Smalley gt-grandfather, Mary (Smalley) Morey.
After Nathan's wife died in July 1901, in January 1902 he married
Mary who was a widow. Their farms were enumerated next to each other
on the 1900 census.We
might not consider that this should be called a highway. What do you
think?
