Judith is the third child of three children born to Amos & Clara Haslip. Judith married Henry Orlando Perkins on 21 Jan. 1892 in Postville, Iowa. Judith & Henry have two daughters, Clara & Ethel, both deceased by 1975. She was a Farmers wife. She may have had her own milk cow & a home vegetable garden. Maybe even some fruit trees. So she most likely made her own butter & cheese. Harvested her vegetables & fruits & canned them for their winter food supply. She learned how to use & read her woodstove. Bread every other day, cookies, pies & cakes were expertly done. That jar of carrotts was absolutely delicious with the evening meals. The canned peaches made a prize winning cobber for the county fair. Anyway you look at it. Most farmers provided well for their families, & married a women who was strong physicaly & in spirit. I may have not had the opportunity to meet this lady but I know from journals & historical accounts how she lived. Not the details of her own personal life but enough to know how it may have been for her.
