Description The interview with Lillie Erkkila Woolsey covers the subjects of family background, her mother's boarding house, daily life, the flu epidemic, strikes and the united mine workers, ethnic groups, weaving, and homemade medications. The Carbon County oral history project (1972-1993) consists of oral histories from residents of Carbon County, Utah. While the main emphasis is on living in coal mine country, the interviews are verbal snapshots of rural Utah life from the earliest settlers to as recently as 1993.
