1015 W. 2nd St Santa Ana Calif May 28, 1953 Charles & Fern Dear Relatives: It is about time for me to answer some of my letters, Since I was sick about three years ago, I wrote very few letters. So today I am going to try my best to write to you. I received the announcement of the arrival of Jerome Scott at your son Eugene home. This makes one more Michel among my relatives and the second in Eugene?s family. Fred Michel (Brother Henry's son) who lives in Worth Missouri is married and has no children, so Eugene made a good start from keeping the name from dieing out. I wish them to grow up to be good and useful men. We have 2 Grandson, 2 granddaughters, and 3 great grandsons, but their names are Gillaspy, Brown and DuVall. Barbara Junes second husband is Earl DuVall, she has 3 sons, their names is Dale Brown, James Brown and Brent DuVall. All of our relatives here are in fair health. Grandma and I are not very well. Grandma never had a doctor in her long life and dont want one now. I am not able to do very much. I most of the time use a walking stick to get about. On May 7th I was 91 years old. I still have 4 cousins alive. I am the oldest of the lot, Cousin Rose Planalp of Galt Calif died recently, my nephew Fred Michel never write to me. We are having a queer season for this time of the year. Cool for a few days then hot again. I did not see any frost last winter, neither did we have and average rainfall. Many people are coming to Southern California every day and some are staying. And all the towns are growing you soon cant tell where they stop or the country begins. Nelda is still a nurse in Los Angles she occasionally get to Santa Ana. The pacific Electric don?t run any passenger cars between Santa Ana and Los Angles anymore. Travel is done by bus but most of the people go in their own car. There is lot of traffic on the Highways and many people get killed. I think 69 were killed in this county so far this year. I wish I was able to make another trip back to Indiana, but I don?t see any possibility. Today it is cool and cloudy back in Indiana you would think it was going to rain. I am glad I wrote this now I know you will not think I have forgotten you. My best wishes to you all Your Uncle August Michel 1015 W 2nd St Santa Ana Calif Jan 21, 1936 Dear Nephew Charles: Your letter of the 18th inst. with the sad news of you father death was received yesterday morning. When the letter was delivered to me (air mail & special delivery) I feared that it was a bearer of a message of that nature. I said sad news, but possibly it was a God send for him after a long life to quietly and gently go to sleep without any long and wasting sickness. It is true we long to keep the loved ones with us as long as we can. In the summer of 1934 when we visited Indianapolis I noticed that he was very fond of his grandchildren and I know he will be missed by all. He lived over four score years, many of them with his family, but in this life it can not always be so. It is well as it is, you all have my sympathy, above all your mother who depended upon him as her staff and protector. Kindly write again and tell me of his last days her on Earth, of the funeral and any thing else you think will be of interest to me. Please give this letter to your mother to read. With my love to you all Your Uncle August Michel 1015 W. 2nd St Santa Ana, Calif Nov 13, 1951 Mr & Mrs Charles Michel Dear Nephew and Niece: I will try to write a letter to you again. Your letter with the enclosed photos of your son Eugene and his wife and yours and son John was received two months ago. many thanks for them. I am always glad to get letters from you folks, and the pictures made me feel double so. I wish Eugene and Eula a long prosperous and happy married life. I am hoping this letter will find you all well. I am able to be up and about again, but far from being real well. I had quite time of it for a few months. Nelda came down from Los Angeles and took care of me for about 4 or 5 weeks while I was the worst. I first had the Dysentery then the Shingles but before I got over them I got the Bronchial pneumonia which laid me up for good and when I got over it, I was very weak and are still so more of less. But now able to walk up town when the weather is favorable. The rest of our different parts of our family are pretty well. I think is wonderful for her age but she takes several naps during the day. Bertha is the head of our family at 1015 W 2nd St. Barbara and her family come to see us now and then. Her present husbands name is Earl DuVall. She has 3 boys Dale , Jimmy, and the youngest name is Brent. We have some cool nights and about a month ago had a frost or two. We had a early rain recently which freshened things up some. We hope to have more rain again this winter than late years as we had a cycle of very dry years and the water level is going down more and more every year. All the water the crops get during late Spring summer and fall is through irrigation and nearly all of that is pumped out of the ground from deep wells. Our domestic water here is Santa Ana and some other cities and towns comes form the Hoover Dam. If I would not have had the sick spell I probably would have visited Indiana this Fall. But I will have to improve much more if will undertake a trip like that. I hope this will find you enjoying good health. Excuse any writing as I did not do much of it this year. My best wishes to you all. A letter from you folks will be welcome any time and often Your Uncle August Michel 1015 W. 2nd St Santa Ana, Calif July 12-1943 Mr+ Mrs Charles Michel Dear Nephew and Niece: Your letters were received in due time and was very glad to hear from you. Ferns letter of the 7th was received this morning, so I will try my best to help you along. When we left Indiana and came to California I destroyed all my letters. The only thing I have to fall back on is a large Journal with 180 pages, I had it ever since I was 18 or 19 years old. In it I jotted down many things at random. Such as births, deaths, marriages and other things. I just looked it up and on page 141 this is recorded: Charles C. Michel was born Aug 26 1894 in or near Tekoa Wash. (Nephew) On the same page I found Emma Michel nee Wright died at her home in Tekoa Washington July 26 1897. (Brother Mathias? wife) You spoke of a girl born Aug 11, 1896. I have no record of same. But I reccolct that your father wrote that a child was still born. I suppose he referred to above girl. Your uncle August Michel Charles and Fern:- I closed my first part of my letter abruptly. I did it in case you want to use it in an offical manner and what I write further would not be of any interest. I don?t know if I told you that our grandson Richard (Dick) is in the Army. He is stationed at camp Wolters, Texas. At present he is home on a furlough. He had dinner with us today. Will start back again the 15th. Nelda came down from Los Angles last night so she would get to see Dick. Bertha is till at home but is feeling better. Aunt Emma and I are holding our own fairly well regardless of our age. Charles in his letter he said that Charles Abplanalp?s farm was on the market. I suppose he reffered to Will Abplanalp?s farm. Will died about a year ago. When you see your aunts remember me to them and tell Cora I wrote to her but never her of her in reply. When you see Edna and Chris Harm say hello to them for me. Henry Michels address is Casper, (Alcova Route) Wyoming. I hope the few line in the first part of my letter will answer its purpose. Write again. Your uncle August Michel INSIDE OF AN UNDATED CHRISTMAS CARD: Dear Folks I thank you very much for the photos you sent us. So will write a few lines and let you know how we are getting along. Two years ago I had a bad sick spell and am not much force now. Last May 7 I passed 90 year mark and I surely feel it. I had intended to make a trip to Indiana before I got sick. But now I think it is best to hang about home. The rest of the folks are in usual health. Dick was 2 years out of the US in South and Central American water with the Tuna Fishermen. I think the market their fish at San Diego Ca., Jack has one year yet to go in High School but his year he is working for an automobile firm as a mechanic. I think he is a good workman and gets good wages. I wish you all a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Uncle Gust 1015 W. 2nd St Santa Ana, Calif. Nov 13 1940 Dear Nephew and family Chas, Fern, Gene, and John Joseph: Your letter of Oct 24 was received and was very glad to hear from you. Like every one else you too seem to have your ups and downs, but from your letter I think your luck is changing for the better, as you all have work and none on the sick list at this time. But I find it is not always high wages that lead to prosperity, the trouble now days and possibly it always has been so many people spend more than their income calls for. I remember it was the first year we were married we had, I think it was 17 or 19 cents in our exchanger the first day of February and pulled through the whole month and had that much left at the end. Of course we had our own wheat corn and potatoes, and our hens manage to lay enough eggs to get our coffee (of which I did not drink any) and a few groceries and got along with our the rest. And I know we were as contented as those who prided themselves for having such unbounded credit that they built a wall of debt around themselves that often they were not able to get outside of it. For the first few years I kept an account of every cent of our income and how it was spent. We could have been on easy street now but the depression that came on 10 years ago started us in the opposite direction. We had much of our money in a building and loan association and still have it there no chance to draw on the principal and very small interest. But with what we have I think we will be able to pull through. I am glad that Gene is well again and John Joseph is still young and as he grows older may expand in body. You told me you was going to have a catholic priest made of him. In that case I think he will be alright. Of all the priests I knew I did not see any with a frail body. Most of the Catholic priest are jolly kind of men. When I was assessor at Napoleon and called on the priest and when we were through with our business he called on his hired girl to wait on us with refreshment. Barbara June is in the last year of high school and Dick is the first year. Jackie is in the first grade. Jackie will be six years old next February. Dick is not as strong as he looks like. The Infantile paralysis left its marks on him. Sharon Mae is six months old and a very healthy baby. I got a letter of Uncle Henry who lives in Wyoming, he said his son Fred and another man were in that locality trying to buy sheep. He said Fred weighs nearly 200 pounds and if he had a mustache would resemble President Cleveland. Nelda came down from Los Angles a week ago and Bertha went back with her, she intends to stay until Thanksgiving. We are having fine weather just like you have in Indiana in Fall. Had one rain so far. We are all in usual health. Write when you can. My regards and best wishes to you all. Your Uncle August Michel PS Tell your aunt Cora that I will write to her soon. A.M. 1015 W 2nd St Santa Ana, Calif June 22,1936 Mr+ Mrs Chas Michel Dear Nephew and Niece: Ferns letter with the enclosed pictures received, many thanks. John Joseph in his cowboy rigging, looks pretty much like a bronco buster, and Gene with his brother makes a nice picture. We have three grand children. Barbara June will be 12 next Wednesday. Dickie was 10 last February, and the youngest, Jackie was one year old the 11 of February. He does some talking and sometimes will walk a few steps, but is not much of a sprinter yet. We are having nice summer weather. Had less than 10 inches of rain last winter (rainy season) and will not expect any more rain until next winter or late Fall. Bertha is down from Los Angles and will stay for a few days. Nelda as you know is a nurse and is kept busy most of the time. We have two more additions from Indiana Stella Abplanalp is in Alhambra north of here, and Clarence Abplanalp (Myrtles brother) came about a month ago from Ripley County. Your cousins in Camanche Oklahoma, Mr and Mrs Max Renas had intended to take a trip east in their automobile this summer Aunt Emma and I were going with them but now on account of business matter they can not go. Otherwise you would have seen us casting our shadows in Indianapolis about now. How are times in Indiana? We are all in usual health. Would be glad to hear from you again. With best wishes to you and family. Your Uncle August Michel Chas letter was received some time ago A.M. 1015 W 2nd St Santa Ana, Calif. Jan 31 1938 Mr + Mrs Charles Michel Dear Nephew and Niece: Ferns letter of a month ago with the sad news of Gene?s affliction was received in due time, it certainly was a shock to us. All we knew of him was that he was well, a kind and bright boy, the impression he made on us when we visited you over three years ago ? then to get such a gloomy message. Fern said that he had use of his limb again, so we are in the hopes that he is on the change for better. John Joseph no doubt got the best of the measels. Our family are in usual health. Dickie started to school today for the fist time since June 1936. He is in the 7th grade and no doubt he will have a taste of school again after so long a time. Barbara June is in the 9th grade (same as 1st in high school) and little Jackie is a bright little boy. He will be three years old Feb 11. We had a very warm and pleasant winter so far, only frost 2 or 3 times here. I will be pleased to hear from you soon with a message of glad tidings My love and best wishes to you all Your uncle August Michel 1015 W. 2nd St Santa Ana Calif. Jan 12, 1932 Dear Nephew Charles: This afternoon will write a few lines to you. We all had colds lately. I am not over mine yet. From your letter I saw that you was thinking of going to Detroit. At this time I think it would be a very bad move to do so unless you have plenty of money to keep afloat until something turns up. But for myself I would not live in Canada either, if it is like some of the Canadians tell me that I spoke to. At the present time there is not a place in the US where people feel confident and safe. They don?t know what the next day will bring. Here in California where here to fore every body had work, even if they were not prosperous they were satisfied. But it is quite different now. Nearly every other man is out of a job or would be if counties and cities had not stepped in and supplied them. The county is paying $2.50 a day to men off and on. They take them in trucks every day to the mountains to work on the roads and fire prevention in the timber. The salvation Army is taking care of many families. If you would be a resident from another state then they would sent you to a camp in the mountains to work for board and lodging. Then there are still other sides to look at. For instance like you Aunt Lizzie, she had stock in the Transamerican Corporation, a few years ago she could have sold for &12,000 or $13,000, now it dropped to where she could only get $500 or $600 for it and besides the interest stopped where she used to get over $200 per year. One of our Building and Loan Association went bad. Now our money is tied up for 5 years, and then we do not know what we will get, however they agree to pay the regular 6 per cent. Lizzie and I are both in the B+L. We also have money in another but don?t know when they will also go broke. I know many of the offices and they say that they are OK provided the people don?t withdraw their money. Our bean crop has not been hand picked yet. The hot weather burnt them thro the pods that a big part are waste. I don?t know if we will have enough for our share to pay the taxes on the land. We are all in hopes of better times ahead. The last letter I received from you was dated 9-15-31. In a letter your father asked me about Mr. Eggler, a relative of ours. The last letter I got from him he was at Calgary working in a dairy at $30 or $40 per month and board. He wrote to me and wanted to know what he should do, as he thot he was not getting enough pay for the hard work he was doing. I wrote and told him of conditions here and told him not to give it up. I also told him the main thing was to save as much of it as he could. I was up to see how Aunt Lizzie is getting along yesterday, as we had not seen her for a week. She too has a cold. She asked ?Did you get a letter from Matt yet?, then after while she would say ?I wonder why he don?t write?. Then she would say maybe they are in Indiana again. Supper is about ready, they have waffles from meal that Max + Goodles sent us for Christmas. They have a hammer mill, and grind the whole grain of wheat and it sure makes fine meal. Wishing you all health contentment and happiness and a grand opening for prosperity during this year. Your Uncle Aug Michel
