Tell me about your grandparents

[panader0]

19. On my mother's side, my grandfather was a history professor that went west from N.Y. for the

Alaskan Gold Rush. He made it as far as Spokane where he married one of his students,
a half Crow woman from Lodge Grass, Montana. He taught at Eastern Washington U for fifty years
and has a building there named for him. On my dad's side my grandfather was a foreman at the
Kennecott Copper mines in McGill, Nevada and grandmother was first generation Irish from
County Cork. All Westerners, as were myself and brother (S.F.).
Back when, EWU was called Cheney Normal School.
