During first through twelfth grades, my family moved nine times. To help alleviate sadness, I was promised a room of my own that could be decorated any way I wished. I learned to paint walls, take down wallpaper, paint furniture, etc. That part of moving was enjoyable! |
Many moves were unusual for people in the Fifties. Several generations usually lived in the same place or nearby, and kept the family home.
