My grandfather Don Carlos Ivie died on 24 June 1940, which was almost one year before I was born. Therefore, I never had a chance to see him and I am unable to find stories about him. My older sister Eleanor Bentley has very pleasant memories about my grandfather Ivie. She said that he loved his grandkids and was a very kind man. Eleanor said that he died of a brain tumor and was in pain for about six months before his death.

He was born 26 June 1881 in Daniel, Wasatch, Utah and died 24 June 1940 in Miners Hospital in Park City, Summit, Utah. He was married 4 April 1908 to May Pearl Wright and sealed in the Salt lake Temple on 6 May 1941. They had nine children Vivian, Phyllis, Ivan Don, Kenneth Don, Elma May (my mother), Eugene, Marvin, Harold Ivie, and James Leonard. My grandparents also raised a son born to Phyllis who went by the name of Donald Kenneth Ivie. After the death of my Grandfather my grandmother raised nine children of her oldest daughter, Vivian ivie Barnes, who died on 5 February 1946. The names of the Barnes Children were: Margaret Betty (Margaret died at early age), Vern Dale, Raymond, Lila May, Hyrum, Robert, Nancy, Janet Rose, Jerry, Tommy, and Larry.

Memories from a story by my Mother, Elma May Ivie Perez.

My grandfather worked in a mineral hard rock mine. The name of this mine was Silver King Collation. They mined silver, zinc, and lead ore. It was a very rich mine. My mother was very young when they lived in a small home in Lower Deer Valley. She was four years old when her family moved in the house that was much too small for the family. My mother loved her dad and he made her swing on the porch and she would sing nursery rhymes and count to one hundred.

My mother tells me that my grandfather had health problems form working in the mines. Dr. Brogly ran tests and x-rayed his lungs. The doctor told him to quit the mine and get a job where he could breathe clean air. He had dark spots on his lungs. He quit the mine and started preparations for his journey to find another job. My grandmother was sad, but she encouraged him find another job. He told the family goodbye except my mother. He let her think he just went to work. My grandfather found a job in Night, Wyoming on a ranch.

My grandparents moved to Evanston, Wyoming only for a few months and returned to Park City, Utah. When he returned he got a job in the mine, rented a two-bed room house and sent for his family. Grandfather started building our new house on Onterio Ridge. The house was built on company ground, which was quickly claimed. Grandfather had to have permission to build there.

Memories of my grandmother May Pearl Wright Ivie

I do have loving memories of my grandmother Ivie (May Pearl Wright). She was to me a sweet and kind person. Although, we did not visit her a lot. She was a good cook and taught my mother home making skills. As a young boy I lived in Park City, Utah and knew that I could go to grandmother’s house any time for dinner.

Long before I went to school, I was playing out side and came into our house because I was hungry. I asked my mother when we were going to eat. She replied in a joking voice that she was not going to cook and we were not going to eat. I thought my mother was serious so I went out side and headed for my grandmothers house, which was some distance away. I grandmother saw me coming and she asked what I was doing and I told her that I came for my supper. She set me down to the table and fed me. At about the same time my mother told my sister Eleanor to go out side and tell me that supper was ready, but they could not fine me. They were consider because they could not find me. After supper at my grandmothers house she had my Uncle Gene take me back home. I am not sure that I remember this story but my grandmother would tell me this story just about every time she saw me.

My grandmother was visiting our family when we lived in Salt Lake City, Utah and we were eating. She asked if I wanted some fruit cocktail and I told her no because to me it look like soup. She encourage me to try some and told me fruit cocktail was very good. I agreed to try some and from that day on I loved fruit cocktail and always think of my grand mother.

I lived in Park City only for a short time and then we moved to Salt Lake City and then Price, Utah. From that time on we only saw my grandmother about once a year and she was living in Center Creek, Utah on a 40 acre farm. I enjoyed visiting my grandmother because farm life was a new experience for me. They raised most all their food on the farm. They had milk cows, pigs, chickens, workhorses, bees, fruit trees, raised potatoes, carrots, peas, corn, alfalfa, wheat and oats. They had a root cellar to store potatoes and carrots during the winter. They also had a small granary to store grain.

Her oldest daughter, Vivian Ivie married Charles Brigham Barnes and they had nine kids. Vivian died on 5 February 1946 leaving 8 children to be raised. My grandmother was living in Park City, Utah at the time and she went to Center Creek, Utah to take care of the grandchildren. She still had one son Leonard and grandson Don in addition to eight Barnes. She married her son-in-law Charles Brigham Barnes and they raised the kids of both families. Charles Brigham Barnes and my grandmother never had children. Charles Brigham Barnes died on 5 October 1954 in Heber City, Wasatch, Utah. At the time of Charles death there were three other children to be raised. My grandmother died on 17 January 1962 in Heber City, Wasatch, Utah. She continued to live on the farm until she died. At that time I was in the United States Army stationed Germany and never got a chance to attend her funnel.

My grandmother was a great mother and grandmother who raised nine children of her own, nine Barnes grandchildren, and one child of Phyllis who went by the name of Don Ivie. This makes her one of greatest grandmothers in the world.
