    • Amy came to Texas as a child with her parents. The Civil War was over and also the Indian trouble had moved west, no longer a threat to the Gainesville area. She became a teacher in Salem, Texas from 1901-02. A near
      tragedy occurred when an irate mother took a hammer and beat Amy and left her for dead on a lonely country road. She was discovered and was taken home. She decided being a housewife was a much safer job, so she stayed home and helped her husband.
