My grandmother (Eugenie Elizabeth ROBINSON) told me Mr. McWhinnie "was a short Scotchman. After he and my mother married, they rented a little house and fixed a room for me. He built a bookcase for me. [it was upstairs in the hallway at the farm, and when Grandma died she left it to me.] He was good and kind to my mother and me."
