Hughenna's Story

 




With a labor of love from the children of Hughenna (1902-1991) this book has arrived. It is dedicated it to her many descendances. 

She tells her story of leaving Ontario with her family in 1906 to homestead in Saskatchewan, growing up and attending a one-room school, becoming a teacher and teaching in a few of the one- room schools that dotted the prairies in those early years. 

She goes on with her married life during the depression and raising a family in an unmodern home. 


The last section are the memories from her children and grandchildren. Many photos have been inserted throughout, which also tells a story. 

(1980) A quot from her life's account "I don't think we had any troubles than did our pioneer grandparents or parents. I have a lot to be thankful for, my seven children all had a fairly good education and seem to be able to make their way in the world. I have twenty-four grand children of whom I am very proud and pray that they all have as good and happy life as I have had

Special appreciation to the editor and publisher, Studio-eh Design for making this possible.
