Life in the late 1800’s was frequently just inexplicably tragic, as Edward Augustus Boardman and Catherine Fitzsimmons discovered in their lives together. Though they had financial success, attempting to raise children was nearly the end of them emotionally. The plans we have aren’t always what God has in mind for us. As hard as we try, sometimes we are just called to go through things. Such was the life of the Boardman family from Golden, Colorado. (💍Est. 1881❤️)
