Jewel plucked out all of her eyebrows, then drew them in daily. She convinced her daughter-in-law Josephine to let her do hers, saying they'd grow back in, but they never did.

Jewel's 1st grand-daughter, Wanda Alice Hale, was born in her home, with her son, Dalton, helping in the home delivery.

Dalton Hale said of his mother in 1991:

"My mother had some letters, now lost, dated 1917 from him, (Clifton Hale) which sounded like before they got married.

"My mother was the youngest child of Brince Dickson and his first wife. She died when she was 49. Female trouble. She had an operation in Pasadena Texas. She got complications and died of pneumonia which had set in. She died July 19, 1951. She is buried beside Cliff in Guiceland Cemetery.

"I was raised in Detroit, Mom (Jewel) had kin there. First few years I would stay there with Aunt Georgia (nee Dickson) and Uncle Com Walling. (In Texas) Would stay there a year with them, then a year with Mom and Bill. (In Detroit)

"Off and on 'till I was around twelve.

"I was living with Aunt, when one night I got aggravated awful. I got out of the car one night when we was haulin' and ran away. I walked the railways, to Granpa Brince's."
