GH: The, ah, house was built by Peter Balmes, B-A-L-M-E-S, It's an [indistinct]. B-A-L-M-E-S, German also. And it consisted of four bedrooms on the second floor, and living room, dining room and kitchen on the first floor. Moving into the house I decided that was that was going to be my family's…that is raise those four children. I casually mentioned to the architect at the time that the master bedroom I was going to live and die in. For the record let me say that I wasn't in the master very long. The children came along in rapid succession. I had five more children. I had a total of nine children, seven boys and two girls, with the result that I was moved from the Master bed room into the maid's room and the maid was pushed up to the attic. However, all my children were educated. Their grade school was all at St. Francis Xavier school here in Wilmette, Catholic school.
