"Harriett May Barett was born in Elgin,MN. The family moved to St. Paul and she started school there. They lived for a brief time in Aitkin,MN then moved to Stillwater. While in Stillwater she often went to the prison with the church choir to sing for the prisoners and she saw the Younger brothers, of the Jessie James Gang, and they were very friendly to the people of the choir. She was a lyric soprano and enjoyed singing and was often asked to sing for groups. She was Presbyterian and always was active in the church. After Stillwater they moved to Duluth where she entered high school but her health was not good there so they moved to LeSueur where she lived until her marriage." [JWP]
