"Kenneth Clair HAYCRAFT was born in 1907 in a logging camp 30 miles north of Bemidji where his father, Isaac G., worked. Times were tough for the lumberjacks of northern Minnesota and would remain so for the HAYCRAFT family for the next 20 years. Despite a string of failed attempts at farming and small businesses that bounced his growing family from Bemidji to Winnie, Texas, and then across northern Minnesota, Isaac HAYCRAFT reportedly remained a patriotic Republican and a religious man, proud of his family’s role in the American Revolution and the success of his brother, Julius E., a Minnesota state senator and district-court judge. For young Kenneth, however, the family’s financial straits meant working in his father’s general store beginning at age 13. HAYCRAFT’s high-school years were as transient as his childhood. For his freshman year, Kenneth and his older brother Sylvester J. (Jolly), went to Washington, D.C., to live with their oldest brother, Everett, a lawyer with the Federal Trade Commission. The next spring, however, the brothers had to leave Washington to help their father develop an 80-acre farm 10 miles west of Hibbing, clearing land and building a house and barn. Because of the farm’s isolation, Kenneth boarded with a family in Grand Rapids to continue his high-school education. Then, in the spring of 1923 the HAYCRAFTs left their Hibbing land to live on a cousin’s farm near Erskine, and Kenneth entered his third high school in three years."
