The farm contained 100 acres and they made their living off the farm for many years. 0n November 5t 1928, the coal rights on ll.l4 acres of the farm was sold to the Citizens Coal Hining Conpany for the price of $3750.00. Our uncles considered this to be a good price in the year 1t28. The only make of automobile they ever ob/ned were Dodges. Carl Cerny was the only one in the family that ever drove the carl with the exception of our mother Theresa Cerny Blair and Louise Cerny Bickel. They both learned to drive after they married. Since we were the only nieces and nephews of the Cerny farnily they all were very unselfish and generous with us. As children we could hardly wait for the big package to arrive at Christmas time and receive so many uonderful gifts. One never forgets those wondrous years that seem to pass so fast wi th time.
