The original Lockhart mission “Old Site” was moved to it’s current site in 1969.
Lucy H remembers moving from “Old Site”:
“It was 1969 that we moved over, as I remember my family and I were the last ones to move from Lockhart mission. My husband, Joseph, his grandmother Nellie Siev and grandfather Harry Siev, Rosemary Siev (adopted) and Novina my first child.”
She remembers that some people did not want to move.
“My husband was working at the store, so they had to send some of the people over. The old people were left there for the next trip to come. Some, just didn’t want to move. So we had to stay there ’til, you know, the food line because of the store to feed the old people – Lorraine, Grace, Ina”
[SC – more to come] (not sure of month of move)
