Forever Loved: Millie of Mountain Creek - Paperback

by Cynthia West Abbott (Author)

Thomas West, a blacksmith farmer in Granville County, North Carolina, wins the heart of the lovely Millie Currin, whose stepmother feels the young man is far beneath their family both socially and economically. At last marrying in 1838, Thomas and Millie inherit his grandfather's old farm, raise a family, and endure the hardship of having two of their sons serve as soldiers in the Civil War. The couple and their children face trials of their faith and the pains of loss; however, they learn to trust in God and His plan of salvation. This generational novel is a continuation of Forever Loved: Sarah of Swan Point, telling the story of some of the descendants of James and Sarah West. Both novels are based on the author's real-life ancestors whom she has spent years researching.
