Poems, stories, memories, old letters and diaries from family members
are welcomed. If you have something you would like to share with the family just send it to me, (Use the button
below to send an email ) and I will post it.
All comments are welcomed. If you have a comment, question or suggestion about the site, or wish to submit an entry, just
click here to send it to me!
Following is the inspiration for creation of this site:
Uncle Bo,
I have a poem I'm working on about my Dad, it may stay the same, I may change it over time. Thought you wouldn't
mind reading it. Along those same lines I was thinking that in our large family there are others interested in poetry and
I'm sure have written some poems. Is it possible to have an option, forum, or folder dedicated to poems written by family
members? I would really like to read what others have written.

As I began to think about Jerry's idea I thought of using Tripod since I had built other sites and knew how to
proceed. As I began I decided it would be good to expand the idea to include, not just poems, but stories, diaries and
history. When finished I hope this site will be a place where any family member can go, to not only be
educated about our family but to enjoy reading what some of them have written. You will find letters and poems written
as far back as the Civil War days more than one-hundred and forty years ago!

CBS Evening News sometimes has a feature where a roving reporter goes into a town somewhere around the country, opens
a phone book and without reading he picks a person's name at random. Then he goes and interviews that person and
tells a story about him or her. They call this feature, "Everybody Has a Story". And that is true. Each
one of you that reads this has a story to tell, or has written a poem. Please share them with all of us.
