I don't think any of them turned the wagon over because I think they were too poor to buy a wagon.

Actually I have a story about my GG grandfather buying a new wagon in the community where Silver Dollar City is now, but that goes in another thread.
That wagon my ancestors turned over and bunked under might have been Ford,so they were poor too
