Registered for WWI draft, Milam Co, Tx Thomas Jefferson, age 83, was living
with Joe Eiland during the 1920 census. All of Joe and Willie's children were taught how to be independent
at an early age. They were people who cared for other people and this was taught to their children
by their example. Joe operated a "Beef Club" that butchered one calf each week to provide fresh beef
to about 20 OR 25 families each week. Each family furnished one calf over this 20-25 week period to
pay for their share of the beef received. This was a way for the people of the community to have fresh
meat during the hot summer months when meat could not be kept for very long periods. Willie used money
from her yearly turkey crop to buy Sunday School materials for the Sunday School that she taught at
the Gay Hill community school house since there was no church building in the community. Joe operated
the first school bus to bring the Gay Hill school children into Rockdale High School in 1936 so they
could finish their senior year of high school.
