| Biography |
Biography: My great-aunt Carrie (Esther Caroline) and her sister (Emma Rebecca) lived in Milton on Front Street during the flood of 1936. Their house was 2 stories. The first floor had 12 foot ceilings. (They ran a laundry from the back of the house and had a great big ironing machine that ironed bed sheets.) I remember Dad went over to help them move all their belongings up to the second floor. The weather report said the river would peak at 10 feet so they should be fine living on the second floor until the water subsided. Well the river didn't stop rising at 10 feet and they actually got a couple inches on the second floor. When the water went down I remember it being really eerie because there were mason jars stuck to the ceiling. The concave lid formed a vacuum so they stuck tight when the water went down. There weren't a lot of them but it really looked odd.
