| Memo | 2006 | Memo: A note about Matilda from her son Frank: Hedge Row School was a one room school house located along wht is now (2006) known as Airport Road. It was located where the North/South runway is for the Peoria Municipal Airport, Peoria, IL. Matilda received a very limited education since she was the oldest of her fourteen surviving siblings and had to stay home to help with chores on the small 10 acre farm. She once commented that about once every few weeks her father would hitch up the horse and wagon and it was a real treat to ride with him into Bartonville for supplies, mainly bulk flour, surag, and coffee. She said that they had an orchard, garden, and live stock; i.e.; two horses, hogs, poultry, and a milk cow. They had a smoke house where they smoked their meat such as bacon, hams, spareribs, loins, etc. They canned sufficient vegetables to carry them through the winter. They also had a cool cellar under the house where root vegetables and fruit could be preserved. A real treat was lard on home made bread sprinkled with a little sugar. They had "two holer" outhouse, modern for its time. They retrieved their water from a well. All this meant a lot of work for the oldest of John and Anna Closen's brood of children.4 |
