While the Bradshaws lived in West Virginia they had a number of slaves. Ann
had a slave playmate. She talked with a southern accent, using southern idioms
'reckon as how', etc.
Ann was 2 years old when her father died. Some time after that, Ann went to
live with her grandparents, Jacob and Ellen Bradshaw. They moved to Iowa and
she never saw her mother or half-brothers again. Ann loved to ride horses.
She rode a horse from West Virginia to Ohio, in a wagon train. Later, she went,
by horseback, to Iowa. While in Ohio they stopped at the home of the Clevelands.
She and Grover were children, and swung out over the Ohio River on a long, wild-grapevine
swing. While she lived with her grandmother, she learned many marvelous ways
to preserve food. Those pioneer women were very wise and thrifty, and had no
way, except natural means, to help them. "They had long white boards that
the plum pulp was spread upon, after the plums were cooked, seeded and skins
removed. When this pulp was dried they rolled it in large packages and called
it plum leather. A portion was sliced off for pies, etc., and was very good
eating. String beans were dried on long cords as they were picked. Dried in
the shade, the hulls stayed green. Cooked, they were like fresh beans. Sweet
corn and peas were dried too. Other things were buried in straw for preservation;
potatoes (both kinds), apples, melons and pumpkins." - from Family History
