Barbara Ann
Dear Barbara, According to your mother, you were born on Tuesday, August 1, 1939. However, the official Utah State birth records state that you were born on Wednesday, August 2, 1939. Soon after you arrived, your father was called to military duty in the United States Navy and you and your mother remained in Ferron. During your early childhood, your caretakers were your mother and grandparents, Morris and Mae Singleton. Following the close of the Second World War, your Father returned to Ferron and began working in the Singleton General Store which was founded by your grate grandfather Samuel Singleton. His employment at the store became a life-long endeavor for both your father and mother. During this time, he supplemented the family income with a variety of jobs including driving a school bus, farming, painting and serving as the Emery County Assessor. Prior to his retirement, he was honored by the State of Utah as the “Assessor of the Year”. Much
