Oscar and Ruth and their seven children operated a farm and a dairy on the James Henry Hughes farm which is south and east of Coweta, just south of Highway 51B. He received an award and trip one year for his prize winning corn crop. The Hughes home was the site in the late 1940's and 1950's of many large and happy family gatherings. July 4th celebrations were of special note. Home-made ice cream, cakes of all sorts and fried chicken with all the trimmings were a delight for the children and adults as well. There was a huge cedar tree in the front yard of the Oscar Hughes home. The limbs were just perfect climbing rungs for the children to perch upon - sometimes there would be perhaps a dozen kids playing in that one giant tree. Sadly for the whole family, the original Oscar Hughes home was excavated by grandson Randy Swartwood when he built a lovely two story home on the site; however, the cedar tree still stands and was in wonderful health the last time I visited in 1997.
