Their Childhood

Frances and her sisters grew up on their grandparents’ farm in Beardsley, Kansas where they played with geese and had some roosters as pets.

Fun Times

The sisters would ride the tractor run by 5-gallon buckets of gas they would lug out to the field and even butcher their own pigs to eat.

They Spent Time Together

Frances said, “We’d cross the pasture, we would walk, and then on the way back, we would stop at the creek and catch frogs, put them in our pockets,” and they did all of that in dresses because girls didn’t wear pants back then.

They Went Through A Lot

The three of them also survived the Great Depression on the farm eating chickens and dry beans. “We always had homemade bread, just plain potatoes, and gravy and meat,” Frances told USA Today.
