• Notes

  Irene admitted that this was the scariest time of her life, always living on the edge, always facing the possibility of arrest. Life on the farm was also somewhat risky. Her father, Joseph Harnack, ran a still on the farm and he was lucky to have a pal on the police force who alerted him to planned raids which would have ruined his bootleg operation. Irene had remembered that times were desperate, her father had many mouths to feed and limited options. Lifetimes: Childhood memories lasted more than a century. (2020).
