Story per Stephanie Niedens, granddaughter:

My maternal grandfather, Carl Council Bare, ran away from home. Jefferson, North Carolina, on Easter Sunday, 1928, after hiding his suitcase in the trees, and making a deal with a local taxi driver to take him down the road out of town. Carl then hitch-hiked across Tennessee stopping to work for a time at the Dupont Rayon Factory in Nashville, and then continued his travels West, using his thumb for transportation, across Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas. In April of 1930, he arrived in Tribune, KS, found work at the Kuttler Cattle Ranch and married Annabelle Foley. Their firstborn was my mother.
