Some Notes about Grandmother Olive Mather Roome By Liza Belikov My grandmother, Olive Mather Roome, was born May 1, 1913 to Olin Grove and Gladys Pauline Richardson Mather in Dixon Hollow. Her paternal grandparents, Grove W. and Phyllis Doolittle Mather, lived next door. Olive’s dad, Olin, was the youngest of 4 children and the only son, born 20 years after his oldest sister Ellen (officially Helen J. Mather), but known as Auntie to Olive. By 1918, the family moved to Hemlock, as the city of Rochester bought out both houses and the farm to control the water supply. Auntie eventually moved to Minneapolis, and was a teacher there for 50 years. Every summer she came back to Dixon Hollow and later Hemlock. The money from the grandparents home was eventually put in the Livonia bank, and would support grandma for her life, but it was stolen by the bank teller! Olin Mather was busy with the cider mill on Clay Street in Hemlock. He sold sweet cider at the mill and always had a cider stand at the local Hemlock fair. Olive attended the Hemlock school until it burned in 1928, and went with Auntie to Minneapolis to finish high school. She went to U of Minn. Eventually she came back to teach 7th and 8th grades in Livonia, 3 miles from Hemlock. She bought a 1932 one seater coup on a salary of $76 a month. She went back to care for Auntie to Minnesota in 1936. She was married in Minnesota, but her husband, Henry Roome, was drafted for WWII, and Olive came back to Hemlock with daughter Louise, and Olive taught 4 grades of history at Hemlock high school. That was fall 1944. Olive’s father, Olin, died in April 1945. In 2015 Olive Mather Roome is still living in Minneapolis MN.
