Arnold's Story: September 26, 1950

Hazel updates Arnold with some family news. They enjoyed sailing on Leonard's boat at Balboa Island, Newport Beach

In the 1970s we visited Leonard's family and went sailing on his boat at Newport Beach. I don't know if it was the same boat or a newer one, but by then he had bought a small house to spend the weekend in.

Arnold's Story: October 27, 1944

A letter with news from the Nevis clan in the Central Valley of California:



I believe the relatives cited here are Edwin Mello, Hazel Mello, Helen Mello, Katherine (Catherine) Mello, Edwin and sister's father Manuel Mello, and Bill Nevis's sisters Mary Madruga and Mary Ann Silva. Hanford is where Bill grew up on the various family farms: first in his parents' household, then in two of his sisters' homes, and also on a neighbor's farm (after he ran away from his brothers-in-law).
