Good luck on THAT discussion. Depression era survivors won't willingly part with stuff thay has even a small chance of being useful. I have 2 rooms full of grandma's "expensive" furniture that is mostly worthless, but I do dig the really ancient stuff from the 1800's even if it has no value. Got a chest that has a label saying it was delivered a month before the sanfran 1906 earthquake from sanfran, and a canvas steamer trunk that was labeled in Chicago exactly 100 years before on the day my daughter was born in '86.
