Notes for HATTIE MAE WATTLES:
Written by Lucy Wattles as told by Hattie.
Nancy Perry Wattles was small woman, was a Methodist, and was always sitting in a chair. The entire family was Methodist and attended the church at Bible Grove which was 21/2 miles from their home. Going West, the church was on the left side and Gould Hardware was on the corner with a grocery store across from it. Hattie describes Washington Lewis as a big man, David as being tall and blonde. He loved nature and like to talk about birds, flowers, and trees.Mary Keep was about 5'2" or 3" tall. Hattie describes her as short and "Dutchy". She talked "Dutch" when she got angry. Hattie says her grandmother was Pennsylvania Dutch. Mary Kepp's father was born in Germany.
Hattie remembers that Nancy Perry Wattles Lewis had " a brother that came to see them. His name was Perry and Dad's brother, Perry, was named after him. Grandma Lewis was left a widow 23 May 1903. No doubt he came to see her then. We have thought her brother was named Francis Perry. I was born in 1897 so I was 6 years old. Her brother and Grandpa had me out in the corner yard. Grandpa (David Frost Wattles) put me on a big flat corner post tnd Perry showed me a picture of his daughter in riding clothes and holding a beautiful blooded saddle horse, and Perry said to me, ' You are named after mu daughter, Hattie It was taken a beautiful frm surroundings. He gave me that picture to keep. Densie thought it was in Ohio, but I'm not sure."
This surely could not have been a brother of Nancy Perry. If her brother Frank, whose name was probably Francis, was born in 1814, he would have been about 89 years of age then. Possibly it was a nephew.
The family first rented a house, but then her grandfather (David Wattles), gave them 20 acres  of land. Her father (John Wesley Wattles), built a log house and moved his family in. Next they moved close to the Harmon School. About 1904 they moved to Grayville, Illinois, where her Uncle Cameron Harmon, was a pastor of the Methodist Church. They lived on a form close to the "Big Wabash" River, which overflowed. Her Uncle Cameron got boats to move the family out, if necessary. However, when the water got to the porch, it started going down. She says it was frightening.
On 16 February, 1906, Wesley Wattles sold his 20 acres in Bible Grove to  George Bateman for $500. They then moved to Judsonia, Arkansas, where her Uncle Roscoe Harman and Great Uncle Austin McKnight lived. She says she was 9 years old when they went to Arkansas and 16 when they returned. They moved in two covered wagons. Her brother, Ralph, drove the one with their supplies. Crossing the Mississippi and the "Cash River bottoms" at Cape Girardeau, Missouri, was a terrifying experience. Part of the time, they had to get out of the wagon and walk in waist deep water.
When they arrived in Arkansas, Aunt Hattie lived with Uncle Austin and Aunt Emma who operated a boarding house, where she waited on tables and washed dishes. Uncle Roscoe helped her father find a 300 acre farm at Searcy, Arkansas, where they lived until 1913.
Several of them became ill with typhoid fever and Erwin and Johnnie died. They all came back to Clay County on a train, bringing the bodies with them. For a while, they moved in with "Grandma and Aunt Nancy". Uncle Roscoe traded their farm for $6, 500 and their father purchased 129 acres from F.O. Robinson in Stanford Township, Clay County for the same amount.
