Yes. I lived there but have been away many years. But I think we all long to have a home place where the earth feels just right under our feet.<br /><br />@NFO & Rev - Thanks. I'm grateful that my daughter's generation is stepping up to preserve the history.ProudHillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14305205710265854978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1938438889241366279.post-62530061248031474132011-09-08T09:20:31.443-07:002011-09-08T09:20:31.443-07:00Wonderful post!

They left the farm in the '60s, but the house is still occupied. (Lesbian hippies turned it into a commune-slash-horse ranch.)Rev.

We have a similar thing with our folks down in Louisiana... but we only go back to 1853... At least down there :-)Old NFOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16404197287935017147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1938438889241366279.post-20398840301342645482011-09-07T15:53:36.844-07:002011-09-07T15:53:36.844-07:00That church (2nd pic) and grounds look pretty much...That church (2nd pic) and grounds look pretty much like our family reunion grounds in NE KY (not far from Huntington. Ashland's the "big city" for the folks).<br /><br />4th picture could be one of ours - along with the next few of food. Good eats and REAL Kentucky fried chicken.<br /><br />Visiting the old graveyards is part of the reunion - tracking down graves from 1800 can be challenging<br /><br />Missed ours this year. Forgot the day until too late to get over there in time. Homesick for a place I never lived but all my male ancestors from 1775 to my grandfather are all buried within a few miles of each other. Dad's still around but will be there in his time as well.<br /><br />Looks like y'all had a good time.<br />QAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
