Do not think Vicente's last name was Sepulveda. She was their hired girl, and looked like she had Indian blood. She was a good cook, and used to come over and get us up a real Spanish dinner. Bring tears to our eyes. 2. Arleigh Lemberger, our cousin - son of mother's brother Frank Lemberger. On our front lawn. Wilson West is sitting on post at right. 3. Louise Ambrose on our front lawn.
