REMARK: "She loved her son Than Gardner, and her granddaughters would help her write her letters to Uncle Than (Nathaniel). Alta was the one she would call on most to write for her while she was living in Arizona" - Diantha lived on the ranch where her grand-daughter Elsie Luella Curtis (Matteson), who told this story, lived for many years.
Note: Alcoholism and Heart disease runs in this family's line. I have found many cases from his father William to our relatives who are descendants of Nathaniel Sr.
