  	Recorded in Nona Stricker Sturgeon's journal, she wrote of her Uncle Walter, Aunt Laura, and cousin Monte. pg 10 "My first recollected (with help) conflict with existence came at age four when I was permanently separated from the end of my thumb. This occurred while paternal Uncle Walter, Aunt Laura and cousin Monte were with us one of their indefinite stays - indefinite as Uncle Walter's prospects for getting and keeping a job. The three of them were some sixk weeks that round, six weeks during with our four rooms were filled to bursting with five adults and four children. Sleeping arrangements were correspondingly incongruous, and going to bed was accomplished in relays and under cover of darkness to provide the irreducible minimum of privacy. There was no unpleasantness of ill feeling, however. You couldn't help liking Uncle Walter for all his improvident ways of living." She continues to tell how the children went out to play as adults had coffee and "Uncle Walter was known to have imbibed fourteen cups in a single day." Page 50. complete journal is attached.
