Member Story
The story of Daniel
Daniel Elmsworth could build anything from a barn door to a cradle, and he talked while he worked — long, winding stories about the relatives whose tools he had inherited. Half the family’s oral history survives because Daniel repeated it over sawdust.
The keepsake boxes in our souvenir collection are made to his measurements. He believed every family should have one box for the things that matter, and one story to explain why they matter.
