When Eva was old enough to go to school, she walked 1.5 miles to the Township School. When she graduated from the 7th grade, she went to Freemont, OH., to take the Boswell examination. If she passed this she could attend high school free of charge.This she did. However, she never had the chance to take advantage of the free high school education. Because of her fther's health, they had to move to another climate. So, in December 1908, the family moved to Spring Grove, Virginia, in Surry County.
See marriage notes.
Capton was 10 years older than Eva, so, in a short while he wanted to get married. She said "I can't live in that old house on the farm". He built what was later to be a chicken coop. They moved into the one room house that Capton had built for her. ( the present home was built by Christmas that year)
They had many good times at square dances, picnics, taking part in plays, big dinners, etc., both before and after their children were born.
Eva married BARNES Wellington Edmond on 5 Jun 1910 in Waverly, Sussex County, VA. Wellington and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
