She left behind notes on the Harnett's immigration experience, the family farm (the Pacific Squab and Poultry Farm), school days, and what the Long Beach/Signal Hill area was like in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Her niece, Polly Harnett Johnson, compiled the notes but died before a manuscript was written. Historian/author Claudine Burnett promised Poly she would finish the project. Ms. Burnett also found additional material on the family in newspapers, census records, and through correspondence. The result is an enjoyable read which includes family joy, and tragedy, all adding to the fascinating narrative Ivy hoped would someday be published.view less
