Remembering 100 years
By Lois (Smith) Miller
My father, L. A. Smith, came on a train to the Panhandle with his folks from Michigan in 1909. He rode with the horses in one boxcar while the family possessions were in another. I was born April 5, 1915 on a farm 5 miles north of Hereford in the Progressive community. My grandmother Smith acted as midwife.
When I was 5 years old, I began driving a horse and buggy 4 miles to the Askren School.
