My great-grandmother was born 145 years ago today. Clara Eva Hettie Ellen Jarvis McNeil (6 Apr
1873 – 24 Jan 1959) spent her entire life in Wilkes County, N.C.
On one of her last birthdays, she had at least 4 cakes and a
lot of other food. Could it be that her
6 daughters were competing to see whose cake their mother preferred?
