His father had worked for the railway, also. My mother and dad (Andrew and Jennie) spent their honeymoon in Omaha and visited at their home. They lived in the Lothrop School area and were living in Omaha at the time of the Tornado on Easter Sunday in 1913. I dimly remember Dad (Andrew Anderson) worrying about Annie and family. The girls and boys used to come to visit Grandma Anderson on the farm at Lyons during vacation. Emma was a frail little girl who had and enlarged heart at birth. I remember many happy times with my cousins. Marian and I graduated in the same class, 1927. How lucky we were to live so close to our grandparents on both sides of the family and grow up knowing all our cousins. There were more uncles than aunts, but I loved them all. Uncle Herman was in high school at Jefferson before I started to school. He had rheumatic fever as a boy and was quite ill.
