Message Board Post:
This is magnificent treasure trove of information for me. I am particularly happy to see
the transcription of the letter of my great-grandmother Sarah Venable Houpt. She was a
school teacher in her youth and a wonderful letter writer. I came in to possession of
several of her letters. It is correct that she raised her neice Martin Venable who,
according to what I was told, grew up like a sister to my grandfather, William Houpt. Her
sister Lou lived with Sarah until her death, then for a period with my grandparents after
Sarah died, and then, I was told, Aunt Lou moved in with Martin Venable (Brackett), in
Louisville, I think, where she died. I much more information I would love to share.
