The late 1920' and early 1930's was the time of the Great
Depression. Little or no work was available so people could earn
money for survival. All mountain families grew vegetables, kept a
milk cow and raised some hogs. Those who owned their mountain farms
lived well by working hard and managing well. They cut timber to
sell and earn a little money necessary for clothing and other
things they couldn't grow. It was widely known that gold had been
found in the mountains. Men would put in endless hours panning for
gold in the small mountain streams. Now and then, someone would
find a gold nugget. Most of the time, it would be the size of a pea
or maybe the size of a marble. Gold was a symbol of wealth. When
someone found a nugget and word got around, everyone would be
talking about Uncle Ben striking it rich. However, I never knew of
anyone selling his gold for a pile of money. One day, I realized
that gold nuggets were not only present in these mountains, but
that there were golden nuggets in the experiences of my life in
these mountains. It is with great joy that I share these stories
with anyone who cares to read them. Fred Lunsford
