HOME : Their home during most of their life was the old "Beyer Homestead" located on Hackett Road about five miles from Freeland, Michigan. It was a home that Grandpa Beyer's father built. It was a big home. It had a basement with about five or six rooms, one of which was a fruit cellar with one of those slanting doors to the outside. It had a big, dusty attic, reached by a rather narrow stairway from the second floor. The second floor was very big, with three huge bedrooms and one smaller bedroom. All of the children slept downstairs. At night they would change their clothes quickly especially in the winter's cold) and jump right into bed. The downstairs had the following: a big kitchen, which also became sort of a family room with a pantry just off it and a door leading to the basement; a big living room with a space heater for heating; a big parlor which was a good room and which was only used on Christmas and on special occasions; a big bedroom with a smaller bedroom just off it. It was not unusual for a number of members of the family to share a larger bedroom, even parents and children.
