The family
lived in Alexander and Iredell County. Martin and Nessie
moved their family to Catawba County around 1933. They
moved into Pump Alley’s old house on (Pump) Alley Rd. (about 0.1
mile on the right), just off of Sherrills Ford Rd. near Catawba,
NC. It was a small 3 room house. The kids all slept in one
bedroom - in two beds. They didn’t have mattresses for the bed
and slept on straw ticks. When the straw became flattened, it
could be replaced. Lib, Helen and Willie & Elgevia slept in one
bed, while Legs, Harlee & JC slept in another one. |

The Goble
family were share-croppers. J.C., being one of the older
children, was frequently in charge of seeing that his siblings
stayed on task when they were working in the garden. |

Willie Goble
Loftin said, "He'd tell us that he had weighed the cotton we had
picked from the day before and that if we didn’t pick as much
the next day, he’d 'beat our butts!'" |
