Kuttawa, KY: McClanahan Publishing House, 2011. Contains numerous b&w photographs of the family, facsimiles of documents, genealogical references, and sources. From the rear cover: "Carolyn re-creates the life of her family and native town of Hartford, Arkansas. The Roberts family of thirteen children faced the world in much the same fashion as other families during the 1940’s and 50’s, with love and grit and togetherness. This collection of memories will help other families recall that period that was in many ways more difficult but simpler than today. Told in an intimate and often humorous way, each chapter is a story in itself. The reader will get to know each family member, getting caught up in the struggles and escapades of T.R. and Pauline Roberts and their throng of children. This branch of the Roberts family tree, from the many ancestors to all of their descendants, represents an uncounted number of people that can be found in almost every section of the country. We are the sons, daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren of T.R. and Pauline. Much of what we are was shaped by them. They were survivors, who anchored their lives in hard work and determination, and endowed us all with that as their legacy.". First Edition. Pictorial Cover. Very Good+. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
