Grandpap {Clarence Oscar} Huggins was maybe 5'10" and very slim. I
never saw him in anything but black suit pants and a white shirt with a black
fedora.
He was an
itinerate lay speaker for churches all over the Ohio Valley and made a very poor
living from what I've been told.
{Great}
Grandma {Mary Rachel Davis} Huggins was short, maybe 5' or so and
very round - they were sort of the image of Jack Spratt and his wife.
She had a very round face and apple cheeks with sparkly eyes. Her hair was very
long and white and she wore it in a bun. I don't think I ever saw her without an
apron.

He was buried at Northview Cemetery (on East side of highway) in New
Martinsville.33
During his life, John was employed at PPG, Hope Natural Gas Company and was also
a carpenter.
Per the Helmick
Family Tree website at Ancestry.com (Reprinted with permission):
John was the son of Francis Marion and Lydia Lemasters "Postlethwait." There were 10 children in his family. Issac, Ellis, Joe, William, Pete, Walter, Thomas, Jess and Annie.
John and Pearl Matzie Huggins were married on Feb. 16th 1916 out in a hay field by Reverend Hugh Sapp. He had been mowing hay at the time and stopped to marry them. Members present at the wedding were Mrs. Sapp and Charlie Richter.
John and Pearl resided at 501 Kapple Street in New Martinsville most of their lives. They moved out to a home John built 14 miles from New Martinsville near Wileyville and lived there until John's death in the Marshall County, Reynolds Memorial Hospital July 17th, 1975. Pearl remained in the house John built until suffering a stroke and moved back into New Martinsville.
Also from the same site:
Pearl lived all her life in the New Martinsville area. She and her husband John R. later moved to the country in Wileyville. John built a small home with enough land for a garden. He and Pearl had a good life there.
Harold Lee Huggins stayed with them. He had some problems with his legs and had this three wheeler bicycle he rode up & down Rt. 7 to Homer Huggins, their neighbor.
John fell sick and died in the Glendale Memorial Hospital the day before he was supposed to be released, July 17th 1975. This came as a shock to everyone.
Pearl stayed on at the home in Wileyville. At this time she was taking care of a foster child, Dorothy Sloan. This helped her to get over the loneliness of loosing John. She had a car and drove into town, New Martinsville, quite often. She liked to talk politics with any one willing to hear her view on the present issues.
Pearl had a stroke leaving her unable to drive or talk. She was moved into town to be taken care of by her daughter Mildred and grand-daughter Karen. They took turns trying to nurse Pearl back to health. Just as she would show signs of progress, like being able to walk with a walker, or being able to say yes & no or most famous" remarkable", she had a series of mini strokes that finally led to her death February 16th 1992. This was the same day she and John were married in 1916

Pop {Harry Melvin
Huggins} was the 8th of 9 kids and I am the 6th of his second marriage which
produced 2 and an earlier girlfriend which produced 1. I am ninth in his line at
least.
Pop only weighed 120
lbs at age 18. At about 35 years he weighed about 155 and was very strong and
liked to show you. He never drank and was not a brawler but he would pick up
heavy stuff and do some wrestling.
I can only remember
him as older and big. He always talked very loud and his voice carried very well. People on surrounding ridges said they could understand his
side of a conversation. As he got older he got hard of hearing and he got louder
and louder. If he got excited he would hurt your ears.
All the
schools in our area were rural. There were no school buses; and teachers rode
horses to school. We walked two miles each way. Extracurricular activities were
milking the cow before and after school ---- ha ha.
We didn't wear
uniforms to school, just street clothes. Our clothes were all home-made. The
girls wore dresses ONLY; boys wore pants with buttons (no zippers yet). No
Velcro, either!!! We didn't take any field trips. We didn't have assemblies
like the schools do today.
I went to the
6th grade myself. There were 8 grades in the school, and one teacher taught all
8 grades. We had no kindergarten. The teacher always stood up front of the
class.
We had no paper,
no lap boards, we went to the chalkboard to write. When we DID write on paper
(which was rare) we dipped ink from a bottle. Pencils were called "penny
pencils". Crayons only cost a nickel (4 or 5 crayons to a box), but "who had a
nickel!" Tablets were about 5 inches wide.
We took
cornbread and milk for lunch; but when the cow went dry in winter we had to go
to Grandma Liston's to get milk from her.
We had spelling,
reading, arithmetic, and geography.
We carried water
in from the spring for the school. Older boys who lived close to school would
go early and get the fires started in the winter so it would be warm when the
others got there.
My teacher all
the way through school was Mr. Jim Dulaney except for one year we had a woman,
Lucy Sidell. There was no principal, counselor, janitor, cafeteria workers,
etc; only the teacher. The older kids cleaned the school.
School hours
were 9:00 to 4:00. We didn't have any electricity, or running water, or indoor
bathrooms. Lots of large windows provided our light.
All the kids in
our school were white, Protestant.
I remember
Grandpa Liston heating a rock by the fireplace all night and putting it in the
sled or wagon by my feet and covered with quilts to keep us warm on the all-day
trip to New Martinsville.
There were no
cars; we rode horses to go anywhere or we walked.
Presidents at
that time were Harding and Coolidge.
