My grandfather, Allen Lowe, worked at Sandy Hill Paper Company, in Glens Falls. I think it is now International Paper. He was an engineer and I am pretty sure he was a member of the management. From what I saw as a little girl, in about 1963, he appeared to spend all of his waking life there. He would leave his separate bedroom first thing in the morning, my grandmother would ask him if he didn't want breakfast in her most gracious talking to a houseguest tones, he would grunt no or something and put on his hat and coat and leave, and he would come home late in the evening and go straight to his separate bedroom. I don't think he even often ate the formal supper my grandmother served herself and me with us. I would like to talk to anyone who worked at Sandy Hill before 1964, as they would be likely to have known him. Neighbors on William St might have known him, too, though it sounds rather more likely they would have known my more socially involved grandmother. I have contacted the paper mill, several years ago, whatever it is now, which I am pretty sure is International Paper, particularly as I'm also pretty sure the person I talked to had worked closely with a cousin of mine who also has worked there for some time. I was directed to that single individual and noone else I got through to would talk to me. He refused to be at all helpful. Possibly he just didn't want to be bothered, but my family do not tell family history and it has turned out that they have concealed things, and I have heard a story of a scandal early in my grandfather's career.
