Descendants of Albert Andriessan person (12748.66342)
Gerrit Bratt -- Born at Los Angeles General Hospital (now called LA County, USC Medical Center), in 1933 to Marjorie (Hawkins-Bratt-McClaugherity) and Edward Bratt. Gary grew up with an older sister, Shirley, in various neighborhoods of Los Angeles California. Both his father and mother worked for the phone company. According to Shirley, when Gary was an infant, a care-giver had come to their home with a fever and given it to Gary. After this, Gary developed asthma and was never without an inhaler (there is no certainty that this fever had anything to do with his asthma). Given many of his mountaineering exploits, later in his life, it is a testament to his fortitude, that he was able to pursue these passions, despite this challenge.

In his youth, Gary developed a love of technology of the day -- he built radio sets and worked on cars. Of the two, he could work on one of them in his small bedroom at home. His sister, Shirley, was attending college at Brigham Young University, Provo (Utah) when Gary's father died suddenly at the age of 43. Even though Gary was in High School, Shirley returned home to help their mother, Marjorie keep house. His love of electronics became more focused when he was attending classes at UCLA. (It is said he suffered a crisis of purpose during his senior year and failed a class in his major, certainly due to lack of attention and focus, rather than ability). The next year, he completed his BS degree at University of Oregon, in Eugene. He later earned a masters degree in control systems engineering from California State University, Fullerton.

Following the completion of what would have been his senior year at UCLA, he married Morneen K Cutter in 1955. The two then spent a year in Eugene, Oregon. while Gary finished his degree. The couple then returned to Southern California and Gary took a job with General Dynamics / Convair, at their aerospace plant in Pomona (straddling the Corona Expressway and Mission Bl (Today, this is Hwy 71 and Mission)). He worked at this location for the remainder of his life. While most of his work was classified, he was primarily focused on flight control systems for GD's Standard Missile (I believe this was a non nuclear tactical weapon system). The GD Pomona division was also the developer of the PHALANX gun. A 20mm, radar controlled Gatling gun capable of firing 75 rounds per second. He would frequently talk about this system. I do not know if he worked on this system. While this was an intense time during the cold-war with Russia, Gary was always internally conflicted with his contributions to the military industrial complex.

In Southern California, Gary and Miki first took up residence in an apartment, in San Dimas. This is where they lived when their first child, a daughter Renata, was born in 1957. Shortly thereafter, they rented a house on Denison St. in Pomona, just blocks from the GD Pomona plant. This is where their two sons, Edward and David were both born. After plans for building a custom home in Claremont, near Claremont High School fell through, the found a mid-century modern home in the middle of a lemon and grapefruit grove just outside of, the then northern limits of, Claremont (this area was later annexed by the city). Late in the fall of 1965, they moved to this home, where they remained the rest of their lives.

Gary and Miki loved the outdoors. They had met while both were participating in outdoor activities with the Bruin Mountaineering Club. In 1953, Gary and friends from the club climbed Mt. Robson (12,972 ft) in the Rainbow Range of the Canadian Rockies (The highest peak in the Canadian Rockies). Wikipedia has the following quote about this peak, "Although the mountain is under 4,000 m (13,123 ft), there is no easy way to the summit and bad weather commonly rebuffs most summit attempts." This was a summer expedition that he spoke of to many climbing groups. This is described in "Trial by weather -- 1953 ascents of Mount Robson" by Don Claunch, The Mountaineer, p 20-23, Washington, Dec. 1953 [1]. He was accompanied by Jon Gardey, Jack Lasner, Norman Sanders, and the author, Don Claunch. Gery submitted a letter describing the climb, to the American Alpine Journal, which was published in 1954 [2].

As a family, we journeyed to many mountain and desert camping locations, throughout the western united states. For many years between the mid 1960's through the early 80's, we would return to Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite National Park. Both Gary and Miki loved the local mountainscape and car-camping at the now closed Sierra Club campground, surrounding the natural soda springs. We weathered many afternoon thunderstorms in Parsons' Memorial Lodge. Gary climbed many of the peaks in that area, leading his sons David and Ed to the summit of Cathedral Peak (10,912 ft) in the mid 1970's. He attempted Mt. Lyell (13'120 ft) a few times, but was never able to summit. David did eventually summit this peak during a summer research expedition. Gary and David climbed Mt. Whitney (14,505 ft), via the exposed Mountaineer's route with a Sierra Club group in the early 1970's.

Another of Gary's passions was classical music. In the 1960's and early 1970's he and Miki held season tickets to the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra, Thursday night, "Premiere," series. They would pile us all into the car and drop us with our Grandma Lenore (Speidel-Smith-Dawson) who lived on Shatto St. in Los Angeles, just blocks from the Dorthy Chandler Auditorium. They would attend the concert, return to Grandmas, pile us all back into the car and drive home. This love of music was conveyed to his daughter Renata who has become a very well respected musician in her own right. Learning Cello with classical training, she is now a very accomplished Jazz and Fiddle Cellist, ensemble player, and clinician. Gary played several instruments, including the Piano, Oboe and Recorder. Very few gatherings would occur without some type of singing or playing.

Throughout his life, he and Miki maintained close ties with many of their friends from the UCLA, in particular, former members of the Bruin Mountaineers from 1953-55. They continued to organize and join group camping trips, though our members dwindled to a more common few. They also hosted an annual holiday party. I'm told that originally it was a Halloween party, but it became a winter solstice party after they moved to Claremont. (Rumor is, they tried to cancel it after they relocated, but the club members, unbeknownst to the hosts, decided to converge anyway. They called it a surprise housewarming party.) This gathering continued as an annual event until Miki's passing in 1996. This evening f?te would frequently last well into the evening with many attendees bringing sleeping bags, pitching tents on the lawn (the house was located in a citrus orchard with no nearby neighbors), curling up on any flat surface of the house, or in their cars -- spilling into breakfast and maybe a mid-morning hike the following day.

In 1982, Gary was diagnosed with Leukemia. He had just begun chemotherapy treatment when he died, suddenly in Sept. of that year. He was 49 years old. His wife, Miki continued working in local politics and city organizations until she died in 1996. His mother, Marjorie died in 2006. His two sons share his passion for the outdoors. David continues to explore outdoor locations frequently and is an accomplished hang-glider (he earns a living as a carpenter). Ed sailed actively around Southern California and in the San Francisco Bay. Ed followed Gary's passion for electronics and has worked in technology since earning a BS. His sister Shirley still lives in Torrance California.

In a letter from Katherine to her mother (Lenore), she writes: "We aren't going to spoil her in fact we're going to be careful to see that other folks don't. She won't be picked up or rocked it would be fun to rock her when she's awake but she will be sweeter without so much attention."
In the early days, Katherine writes of having house-help "a Japanese girl." She came half day every day (2:30 in the afternoon until the dinner dishes are done") and full day on Saturday. They paid her $2.50/week. Katherine writes: "Did you ever hear of anyone working so cheap?" Compare this to a later letter where she complains about the high prices of food. She describes her grocery bill at $35/mo (maybe that's what they could afford?). Says "... I run short sometimes if I don't be awful careful."

-----------------------------------------------

Historical Sketch of Amy Divine Hawkins

My father belongs to the Catholic Church. He was born in Cahercevine, Kerry County, Ireland on the 15th of March 1842. He was married to Emma Quinney in Utah. My mother was born on the 15th of November 1853 in Foleshill, Warwickshire, England. She used to be the Latter-Day Saints. They have six sons and three daughters. Two of their sons were killed. Five of them are married. My father has been a foreman of Section for many years, but he quited it as he was too old. He and his wife are living in Los Angeles, California at present. He works easily as watchman for the railroad there. He is getting old.

I was born in Latham, Lane Co., Oregon on the 28th of March 1877. I lived there for a few years, but my folks moved to Idaho Falls, Idaho when I was a small girl, and moved to Morgan City, Utah from Idaho and lived there for 17 years. When I was married to Leo Hawkins, we lived in Rigby, Fremont Co., Idaho for 8 months. We moved to Bountiful from Rigby and have been living here since 12 years. I traveled to Evanston, Wyoming, Pueblo, Denver and Marshall, Colorado twice times. I was sent to the school for the deaf in Salt Lake City when I was eleven years old. I attended there and Ogden for ten years. I studied Language, Arithmetic, Geography and History, and took Sewing and Fancy Work. I graduated from the tenth grade in Ogden, on the 6th of June 1899.

I used to attend the Baptist Church for one year, but I attended the Latter-Day Saints Sunday School for a few years in Salt Lake City and Ogden. Bro Henry C. Barrell and Laron Pratt were my former teachers. I was baptized by E. A. Stratford of Ogden on the 8th of July 1900 and then I joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I held the [position of] Secretary for the Sunday School for the Deaf at the Ogden Fourth Ward for one year. I taught some deaf kindergarten boys and girls. I was married to Leo Hawkins on the 17th of June 1903 in the Salt Lake Temple. We have three fine daughters and one son. Our oldest girl is eleven years old and our youngest son is 6 months old. I stay at our own home and am taking care of our children and housekeeper since I was married.

Baptized 8 July 1900 at Ogden River by E. A. Stratford into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Confirmed 8 July 1900 by Fred Chambers.

Notes:

Lenore Speidel Smith's synopsis of her life -- Miki Bratt
"Lenore was born in Corvallis. Hattie and Joe had a farm with some cows. Joe did blacksmithing there. (In 1940, the property was across from Oregon State University).

These were horse and buggy days. When Lenore was just a little bit of a thing, she had a pony and would ride out to round up the cows for milking. Her playmates and best friends were her cousins. She was very fond of Ora and Jennie's oldest, and her parents made many visits, back and forth to George's farm near Eugene to cousins Edna, Mollie, and Beth.

Once in the time before she started school, Lenore stood in her nightie near the wood stove to get warm. She stood too near and her nightie caught fire. Luckily, she was not badly burned.

The family came to California. Lenore went to High school with Kuchel's, Stern's and Smith's. She fell in love with Will Smith. They were married in the Congregational Church in Buena Park.

Lenore writes: "Lived in Fullerton for awhile. We moved back to Buena Park. Bought a little cottage that we made all over [remodeled] (Next to Park House Hotel).

"In 1901 I had my first child, a boy, Harry Frances Smith. Later years, March 9, 1967, he died of heart trouble. Five years later, we were blessed with another boy, 1907, Stanley Dunbar Smith and in 1909, William Leslie Smith. We moved to Carlsbad where my husband was a foreman of a 640 [acre?] ranch for two years. Moved back to Fullerton. My husband was interested in Orange and Walnut Groves. In 1913, Aug. 29, a baby girl was born. Later, the crash came and we lost the big Orange Grove.

Will was foreman of Thumb Ranch. Thumb made his money in sticky fly paper." From a 1909 Photograph.

Fullerton ranch waa purchased from the Zeyn girls (1920). From photo taken at party to celebrate moving to the Fullerton Ranch. Stanley home at 511 W. Ash, Fullerton is on old ranch property.

After the ranch was lost Hattie invited Lenore to come stay with her and keep house at 1342 Shatto St. In turn, Hattie promised Lenore half the house. Lenore lived there from around 1931, until a few months before her death in 1968. Will took a job as manager of a ranch on Orangethorpe (in Fullerton) across from Retta's place. He lived in a garage apartment.

Lenore and Will visited back and forth. They fixed a clapboard room and a curtained room in the basement at 1342 Shatto St. There were two double beds and a day bed there. Sometimes Lenore stayed with Will, sometimes at Hanna's ranch nextdoor to Retta.

In Fullerton, Lenore accepted care of Jeannie and Gloria Crawford children of Ted Crawford, a musician. Lenore had a lasting relationship with Ted. There were rumors. At the least he was a very gallant son. She gave him money from time to time. He was always in the hole.

There were also rumors about Will at the same time with a relationship with Mary Milrick, a fashionable Anaheim dressmaker. At the least Will and Mary played cards together with the Simths.

The Smiths were all great card players. Poker and Bridge. Will played cards regularly, much to Lenore's chagrin. he wouldn't play anything except rummy and a little casino. She usually did her iorning evenings while Will played with his sisters. There was a lot of ironing and it was still done with a flat iron, heated on a wood stove. But they had an automobile. Lenore was very proud of her home, her china and silver, and her position as a respected family in the community.
