Charlie Heard was as miner who lived in a cabin not far from the 
school and across the road from Sam Richey in upper part of the 
gulch.  His daughters Annie and Edith and Mary Jane Ritchey would 
visit another Gus Wisner who was a bachelor and he would let them 
have some taffy.  They had alot of fun doing it.  On sundays the 
Heard girls often came to the Adam's home, and Mrs. Adams would 
play cards or games with the girls.  When weather was pleasant 
they too their lunch and walked to Warren Park, played on the 
swings, and visited with Mr. Warren, who lived nearby.  

The three girls had a short school term at Garnet school in 1926. 
 Mrs. Cleary teacher, Edith Heard, Annie Heard and Mary Jane Adams 
were photographed in front of the Garnet School in 1926.

A photograph taken about 1930 shows Charlie Heard, Edith Heard, 
Annie May Heard, Richard Heard and Fred Heard Junior.
