Notes for: Mary Ann Gull

"She was mountain bred, six foot tall, and weighed about 150 pounds in her younger days. She did as much work, or more, than any of the men. In the early days, she looked after everything and left grandpa free to do the farm work. They had a bell on the cow and she had to go evenings and run her down, sometimes a whole hour. She was a midwife for every baby that was born for 15 miles around."
