I didn’t “interview” them , but I did start asking them questions when they got into their late 70s. That is how I found out that my dad’s Uncle Jimmy and my dad’s grandmother had moved to Santa Monica around 1930. But my grandmother did not get along with her mother in law, and my grandmother also felt Uncle Jimmy encouraged my grandfather’s drinking, so Jimmy and his mother were not welcome at my grandmother’s. I tried to get some similarstoreis from my mom, but her parents did not talk much about their lives before the moved to California.
