  Notes	The children, Robert and Margaret were separated from Clara and from each other after the death of the father in 1918, when my grand mother was forced to find work as a seamstress and as a maid. This arrangement was very difficult for my grandmother and her hope was to be family again. My dad and his sister saw each other at least once a year during his childhood. My dad did not talk much about his childhood but did keep in contact with his sister until his death in 1982. He and Margaret saw each other at least four times in their adult life. My father traveled three times to east coast and Margaret traveled only once to Arizona. Her husband had some mental health issues and would not travel by plane, bus, or train. [10]

• Notes

  Robert went to live with his aunt Lillian and her husband Robert Richards, after the death of his father in 1918, when his mother was forced to find work as a seamstress and as a maid. [10] After Lillian's death my father was sent to boarding school, Noble and Greenough in Dedham, MA. He spent most of his summers in New Hampshire or Maine at summer camps. He later went to MIT, where he studied to be a mining engineer, He left after his freshman or sophomore year, apparently after a falling out with his uncle Professor Richards. [10]
