Literature At Home part III

     On The Way Home has a forward by Rose Wilder Lane. In it she describes the literature, textbooks, magazines, and newspapers her family received or had at home.  I'd like to make a list of known literature (ie. newspaper, magazine, books, dimestore novels).

Family Relations

Laura Ingalls Wilder has family relations to the Delano family. Now, who is that? The most popular person today would be Franklin  Delano Roosevelt.  Also, an astronaut Alan P. Shepherd is also descended from the Delano tree. 

The Delano family is one of the families that came over to America on the Mayflower. They even signed the Mayflower Compact.
