"Evidence that the Krumm had an old attachment to Christ Church was thefact that Edith Yearling, my father's second cousin, when she defectedfrom peace Lutheran in Gahanna, fell back up on Christ's. Edith'spowerful voice and assertive personality hid under tender sensibilities.The highly regarded pastor of the Gahanna church down through the yearspuzzled over what he had said or done to offend her. His son still askme sometimes why Edith left so abruptly."

"Edith knew that Martin married twice and when he emigrated in 1832,grown sons from his first marriage accompanied him. Just before he leftWurttemberg, he married a woman pregnant by another man. In Mifflintownship Martin sired a second family, among them my grandmother'sfather, David. Five children lived in Martin's household at the time ofthe 1860 senses. And I believe that two had left home in addition tothe non biological Krumm, whose name according to Edith, was Henry. Shesaid she knew that because she was descended from him. I often heard itsaid Edith's mother and my grandmother were first cousins "twice. "myfather said it for the last time that needed this interment when hersister in law, who was distancing herself, with whom Edith refuse tospeak the last years of their life, reminded my father that he was"Edith's closest relative." Edith's mother, born Mary Krumm, like mygrandmother had Miller as well as Krumm antecedents. Marriages betweenMiller's and Krumm's in both instances made them first cousins twice.Mary and her children appear in photographs of the Miller reunion heldthat David Krumm's brick home around the turn of the century."

"As long as her parents were alive, Edith lived at home. After herfather died, she did on man's work in men's overalls. She put onweight. The sun bronzed her face. Coming back from a visit to theYearling's, my mother declared to my grandmother that Edith was a"site." My father identified her as "the big Indian chief" when herphotographs came on the screen among the slides he took that my sister'sis wedding in 1951. But at the time of the wedding Edith and her motherlived together but we're not speaking to each other. At the weddingthey sat apart in the pews reserved for family. I have lost thechronology of the Yearling family quarrels, if I ever knew it. Thestory my parents and my grandparents believed was that just before shedied, Mary Yearling sold all her land to the expanding Columbus airport.Her will made out earlier, left her land to her two children, Edith andher brother, and any money on hand to her two grandchildren. When Marydied, Edith's niece and nephew, in effect, inherited all of theirgrandmother's assets. Edith's brother dug his heels in, my grandparentsbelieved, and insisted on distribution of the estate is the willspecified. A terrible antagonism developed. From then on, Edith didnot speak to her brother or his wife. Remembering the distance betweenEdith and her mother at the time of my sister's wedding, I wonderwhether Mary may not have disinherited Edith knowinglt. But my parentsbelieve that Mary was negligent.
When the land went, Edith lost her livelihood. She tried running aboarding house. I was staying on Stelzer road one time when she cameinto the kitchen saying she wanted, the "small ones". My grandfatherhad been selling her pullet eggs at a reduced price and was acceptingthe same price even though the eggs were now full size. From the smalldifficulty Edith had in saying "the small ones," I understood that sheknew what she was getting and could bring herself to take advantage ofmy grandfather's generosity because she was hard up. My grandmother wasas intimate with the Yearlings and she was with the families of herbrothers and sisters. Edith put the relationship this way: "when mymother was in labor, your grandmother came to our house to help. Andwhen your grandmother was in labor, my mother did the same." Edith'scircumstances and the ugliness of the Yearling quarrels were anothermental fracture for my grandmother. "

"Edith believed that Martin Krumm had received a financial settlementwhen he married a second wife and that the non biological Krumm hadstarted life with more money than Martin's other offspring. Sheobviously thought a lot about why that inheritance hadn't trickled downto her."
