1253 Edna Isabella Culpepper was known as "Edney." According to Elizabeth
Dempsey in a 28 Feb 1979 letter: The date of Edna Isabel Culpepper
Gray's death is incorrect on the tombstone. Uncle Boyd had the
tombstone placed at their graves several years after their death and
gave the date of death incorrectly. It should have been 1890. I have
often been told Mother, Edna Gray Dempsey, was five days old when her
mother died. Mother's date of birth in the Bible is Dec. 19, 1890. 
Culpepper, Edna Esabella (I2844)
 
1254 Edred was the second son of King Edward the Elder by his third wife,
Edgith. Despite suffering from an unidentified illness which
eventually killed him, he succeeded to the English throne in AD 946
after the unexpected murder of his brother, Edmund the Magnificent.
Initially, Edred received oaths of allegiance from the men of the
North at Tanshelf; but, before the end of AD 947, they had taken on
the Norseman, Eric Bloodaxe, as their king. Edred hit back the
following year, leading an army to Ripon and burning the minster.
Whilst he was in retreat, the Northerners attacked, forcing him to
threaten to lay waste to their kingdom. King Eric’s people abandoned
him and climbed back under King Edred’s wing. However, the united
kingdom did not last long. In late AD 950, the Northerners were in
revolt again, calling back Olaf Sihtricsson to lead them. Two years
later, they rejected him in favour of Eric once more; but he only
lasted until AD 954, when the North finally recognized Edred as their
monarch. The Norse monarchy of York was never to return.

Edred helped move the monastic reform movement forward by appointing
St. Aethelwold to the Abbacy of Abingdon. Aethelwold’s friend, St.
Dunstan was one of the King’s chief advisors and Edred delegated much
of his authority to him in his latter years. The King witnessed under
a third of Royal charters issued between AD 953 and 955. He died
unmarried on 23rd November in the latter year, and was buried at the
Old Minster in Winchester, despite his wishes to the contrary.

1256 Edward had 6 children. Powers, Edward Thomas (I2450)
 
1257 Edward was a staunch supporter and lieutenant of his brother Robert
during the many years the Scottish fought for independence from
England.
Edward had the Earldom of Carrick conferred on him by his brother the
King of Scotland. Edward was crowned the King of Ireland 2 May 1316
and was killed at the Battle of Dundalk 14 Oct 1318. Before the
battle, Edward had given his royal coat of armor to Gib Harper, a
warrior from his estate. The English, searching among the dead for
Edward Bruce, found the body of Gib Harper. Since it had the royal
armor on it, the English thought it was that of Edward Bruce. The body
was quartered for public display throughout Ireland. The head was cut
off and salted in a bucket and presented, in due course, to King
Edward II of England.

Of Bruce, Edward (I7369)
 
1258 Edward was the eldest son of King Alfred the Great and Queen Elswith.
At the age of twenty-two, he appears to have married a noblewoman
named Egwina, though the wedding may have been uncanonical and was not
recognized in some quarters. They had three or four children. At the
same time, Edward was already active in his father's campaigns against
the Vikings and towards the end of Alfred's reign, he was probably
appointed Sub-King of Kent.

Edward's path to the throne was not altogether smooth. Upon his
father's death in AD 899, a rebellion broke out in favour of Edward's
cousin, Aethelwold, the son of the late King Aethelred I. Failing to
secure Wessex, this prince went north and found support from the
people of the Norse Kingdom of York, where he was proclaimed King.
With the help of the East Anglians, he subsequently attacked both
Mercia and Wessex but was killed at the Battle of Holme (Essex) in AD
902. Around the same time, the King married for a second time to
Aelflaed the daughter Ealdorman Aethelhelm of Wiltshire. They had
eight children together. Four years later, Edward made peace with the
Northerners at Tiddingford in Bedfordshire; but by AD 909, he took on
a more aggressive stance by raiding the North-West. The following
year, a joint Mercian and West Saxon army marched north and defeated
the Northern Vikings so completely at Tettenhall (Staffordshire) that
they subsequently felt it best to remain within their borders. King
Edward was then able to concentrate his attentions on the Danes of
East Anglia and the Five Boroughs (of the East Midlands). With the
help of his sister, the formidable Lady Aethelflaed of Mercia, the
next eight years saw a prolonged campaign aimed at pushing the
boundaries of Wessex and Mercia northwards. This was largely achieved
through the extension of King Alfred's old policy of building
defensive burghs across the country, as recorded in the 'Tribal
Hidage'. They were both places of refuge in time of attack and
garrisoned strongholds from which assaults could be launched.

After Aethelflaed's death in AD 918, Edward was able to take advantage
of his niece Aelfwinn's minority and brought Mercia under direct
Wessex control. Two years later, the Kings of the north - including
Sigtrygg Caech (the Squinty) of Norse York, Constantine II of the
Scots and Donald mac Aed of Strathclyde - met Edward at Bakewell and
also finally recognised his overlordship. At the time of his third
marriage, to Edith daughter of Ealdorman Sigehelm of Kent, therefore
King Edward was in a strong position. Holding his territories together
was not easy, however, and revolts against Edward's rule continued. In
AD 924, he was forced to lead an army north once more to put down a
Cambro-Mercian rebellion in Cheshire. He died at Farndon-upon-Dee in
that county on 17th July.

Edward's body was taken south to the reduced diocese of Winchester for
burial - he had sub-divided the West Saxon sees in AD 909, creating
new Bishops of Ramsbury & Sonning, Wells and Crediton. The King was
interred at the family mausoleum, his own foundation (AD 901) of New
Minster in the centre Winchester, and was succeeded by his sons,
Aelfweard and Aethelstan.

1259 Edwin never married. Boyd, Ewing T. (I1451)
 
1260 Effie never married. Shuff, Elizabeth (I2083)
 
1261 Eighteen year old Cynthia married Isaac Jasper, who was 35 years old
at the time and by that time, Margaret was almost 2 years old. This
couple lived nearby both the Price and Knox family. They lived in the
vicinity of where the Westinghouse Plant is today at the corner of
Westinghouse Blvd and Shopton Road West. This couple had six children
in addition to two unnamed infants who died at birth, one in 1862 and
the other in 1872. Of the other six children, one died at the age of 3
and one at the age of 1 ½ years. The other four married and had
families. 
Knox, Cynthia Hannah (I3648)
 
1262 Eleanor is listed as "Nellie Polk" in her father's Will. She moved
toCampbell Co., GA about 1834. 
Shelby, Eleanor (I2143)
 
1263 Eleanor Selina Shelby was born 27 Nov 1817 in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina and died 08 Oct 1900 in Lindale, Smith County, Texas. She married William Lee Henderson 26 Apr 1838 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. He was the son of John Henderson and Ann Sample and the brother of Amanda Ann Henderson who married Eleanor’s brother James Madison Shelby. William Lee Henderson was born 04 Jan 1808 in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina and died 10 Dec 1888 in Lindale, Smith County, Texas. Both Eleanor and William Lee Henderson are buried in Bethesda Cemetery in Lindale.

It is unknown when William Lee and Eleanor Selina Henderson made the trip from Charlotte to Perry County, Alabama. Perhaps they traveled with the Shelby brothers in about 1847 or, perhaps they arrived with William Lee’s brother, John Elam, who also lived in Perry County. However, is known that they were part of the wagon train that left Perry County after the Civil War, in 1869. They traveled with James Madison Shelby and his family to Smith County, Texas to escape the ravages of Reconstruction in Alabama. William Lee kept a diary of the family's journey that has been included in this history under John James Simons.

William Henderson and Eleanor Shelby had eight children: Lorena Isabella, Mary, Joseph Asamon, Sally, John M., William D., Franklin Smith and Rebecca A. Lorena was the first wife of Thomas Dunklin, the second husband of Jane Eliza Shelby, James Madison Shelby’s daughter. 
Shelby, Elenor Selina (I768)
 
1264 Eleventh of fourteen children of William Charles Avery (1812-1895) and Marinda Nancy Nash (1815-1884) of the Byers Crossroads Community of northeast, Whitesburg, Georgia.


On 20 February 1879 in Carroll County, Georgia, Nancy married Peter Sylvian WILSON (1833-1915). The son of Moses Wilson (1800-1865) and Margaret Ann Mosteller (1805-1904) of the Cross Plains Community of northwest Whitesburg, Georgia.


Three children:


1.) Infant Wilson (1879-1879) who died at birth.

1268 Elijah Wilson Powers remained at home content to work with his father
tilling the land and making it more productive. Together they
increased the acreage.

Mary Webb, an orphan and neighbor, came to live with them to help
Susan, who was in her 70's. Later, Wilse and "Molly" wer married.

On his deathbed, Barney asked his sons to divide the farm and share
equally with Elizabeth and Caroline. This was done. Wilse bought the
land from the others. Also, additional land owned by Bettie, which
had been her share of her husband's property.

Wilse was well known in the community for good quality molasses. He
supplied the neighbors as well as his own table. The apple cider had
a special tang because he convinced a Clarksville merchant, closed for
the 4th of July celebration, that he should sell a cider press behind
closed doors. After all, every trip into town had to count.

In 1894, Wilse and his neighbors built Wilson Chapel Church, a
Cumberland Presbyterian Church. He cut trees from his own land and
hauled them to the mill. He hand planed the flooring and siding. One
day, while shaping a piece of the sill holding the floor joists, the
foot adz slipped and cut his foot. Homer was a small boy and
remembers the excitement. The church flourished for several years,
then gradually went down as people died or moved away. It stood empty
for many years. It was torn down about 1950.

Most of the grandchildren of Wilse and Molly are living today and
remem them well. I have faint memories of my grandfather working in
the blacksmith shop. I also remember yellow roses blooming in the
front yeard with redbirds and wrens flitting about singing in the warm
sunshine while Grandma demonstrated how milk was delivered on the
farm. (Sources: Powers Family Bible; Powers Family Cemetery;

1270 Elizabeth Alexander, born about 1650, and died at her home in New Munster, Cecil County, Maryland. She married before 1665, Mathias or Matthew Wallace, "yeoman" in North Ireland. He was the son of John Wallace and Margaret Thomson. Matthew and Elizabeth (Alexander) Wallace are known to have had at least seven children, the first three were born in Raphoe, Ireland and the remainer all born in Somerset County, Maryland. The children are as follows:
1. Hannah Wallace was born about 1665.
2. Samuel Wallace was born about 1667.
3. James Wallace was born about 1669, and died after 31 Jan 1740 in Kent County, Maryland. He married 2 Feb 1720, Sarah McKnitt, daughter of John McKnitt and Martha Dale at St. Stpehens Parish, Cecil County, Maryland.
4. Matthew Wallace, Jr was born 1672 in Somerset County, Maryland, and died 3 May 1751 in New Munster, Cecil County, Maryland. He is buried in the Head of Christiana Church Cemetery, New Castle County, Delaware.
5. Jane Wallace was born about 1674 in Manokin Hundred, Somerset County, Maryland, and died about 1698 in Manokin Hundred, Maryland.
6. Catherine Wallace was born about 1676, and died before 2 Mar 1734 in Somerset County, Maryland. Catherine married her first cousin, William Alexander, III, son of William and Ann (Liston) Alexander Jr about 1690 in Somerset County, Maryland.
7. William Wallace was born about 1678.

13. Dorothy Wallace was born about 1689, and died about 1747.
14. Ann Wallace was born about 1690. She married her maternal first cousin, Arthur Alexander, son of Francis and Rebecca Alexander.


 
Alexander, Elizabeth (I8308)
 
1271 Elizabeth and her family came to the Mulberry Creek area (Bibb Co.,)
before 1920. Most members of the family were from SC with links to
Pendleton Dist. (A History of Early Bibb County Alabama, 1820-1870, by
Ulsses H. Abrams, 1981, pg. 153.

There is a descrepancy regarding Ruth's birthtime. The written
account of Ruth and Alexander's meeting and marriage states that
Alexander was 30 years her senior and that she was 14, at the time. He
was definitely born between 1773 and 1774. This would mean Ruth would
have been born in 1804 and that they met and were married in 1818.
Rutha Banks, their first child, was born in 1804 in South Carolina.
There must have been a mistake in the accounting. (Martha Cross
Mordecai, 2002)

Re. family of Ruth Banks Cobb:
The Banks came from north Alabama, Levi's sister married into the
church and their mother (second wife of their father) moved to the
area after her husband's death. Don't have his name on the tip of my
tongue, but am looking at him as a possible sibling of Ruth. There
were no other Banks in the area when Levi moved there and his sister
married to a local who became a minister. Frances was their mother. I
think the reason they moved there was they were related to Ruth.

Green, Elizabeth (I3554)
 
1277 Elizabeth never married. Boyd, Elizabeth C. (I1453)
 
1278 Elizabeth Peek was probably born circa 1755, location unknown. Nothing
is known of her early life or whereabouts.

Around 1775, she married Francis Gillespie of Cheraws District,
SC. One would assume either that the Peek and Gillespie families lived
near one another, or that Francis met his bride while traveling on
business, or visiting relatives. Since he was a member of the
Committees of Correspondence prior to the Revolution, it is
conceivable that he might have visited Boston, and met his bride
there. But it seems more likely that she was related to other Peeks in
the general area, who seem to have come from Virginia.

She and her daughters, and their husbands, are found in records with
Daniel Peek, who appears to have been Elizabeth's brother. Daniel Peek
died in Richland District, SC, in 1807, and Elizabeth's sons-in-law,
John Culpepper and John Slappey, were administrators of his estate. In
1790, he was noted in Lancaster County SC deed records with Robert
Down and William Tate, witnessing a deed of gift of four lots in the
town of Camden from John Chesnut of Camden to Chesnut's daughter, Mary
McRae ,the wife of Duncan McRae. John Chesnut was one of the leading
merchants in Kershaw Co. SC.

Daniel Peek apparently lived in or near Camden in Kershaw Co., SC
since he was mentioned several times in the Minutes of the Kershaw
County Court. On March 5, 1792 Daniel was appointed as overseer of a
road which ran south/southwest out of Camden across Town Creek. An
1825 map of the county from the Mills' Atlas of the State of South
Carolina shows that Chestnut's and McRae's were still living along the
river near this road. In August of 1794 Daniel Peek served on a Grand
Jury, indicating that he was someone of means in the county, since
Grand Jurors were selected from those who paid the highest taxes.

Based on the Minutes of the Kershaw County Court, Daniel continued to
serve as an overseer of roads at least until 1797. Sometime after 1800
he moved to Richland District SC, where his estate was probated in
1807. Daniel Peek's personal estate included 15 slaves, nine horses,
34 head of cattle and nearly 50 hogs. He had various farm implements
and household items, plus a canoe and a safe. John Culpepper and John
Slappey, the husbands of Elizabeth (Peek) Gillespie's daughters, Nancy
and Betsey, were named administrators of the estate which required a
$20,000 administration bond. Buyers at the estate included John
Culpepper, who bought a shotgun and a pickle tub, John Slappey, who
bought a horse and horseman's sword, and Elizabeth (Peek) Gillespie,
who bought horses and farm implements. Elizabeth had moved to Richland
District from Cheraws District after her husband Francis' death.
Daniel O'Guin, Thomas Watts, and William Gupphill, the three
appraisers of the estate, were also buyers. Although it is tempting to
think that Daniel was Mrs. Francis (Elizabeth Peek) Gillespie's
father, the fact that he was active at least until the late 1790's
suggests a younger man. Elizabeth's father would probably have been in
his late 70's or mid-80's by that time. Daniel was probably
Elizabeth's brother. A Lewis Peak was noted as a witness of the will
of Enoch Linerieux of Craven Co., SC who died April 24, 1778. His
relation to Daniel and Elizabeth is not known but he is noted since
John and Nancy (Gillespie) Culpepper named one of their sons Lewis
Peek Culpepper.

Elizabeth and Daniel may have been related to Abel Peek, born 1765 in
Virginia. Among Abel's children were Louis Peek, Elizabeth Peek, and
Daniel Peek. Abel moved to Franklin County, GA, but may have been in
SC in the 1790's.

Nancy (Gillespie) Culpepper's mother, "Elizabeth Gillespie of the
District of Richland" was also noted in a Marlborough District deed in
1806 selling 133+ acres of land to William Wright who had apparently
been renting the land since the deed notes that he was purchasing land
where he "now lives." The land was on the northeast side of the Pee
Dee River and was bounded on the southeast by John Wilson's land and
on all other sides by James Gillespie's land. Elizabeth (Peek)
Gillespie died in Richland District sometime after the February 1808
estate sale, but no record of her death has been found. Francis
and Elizabeth (Peek) Gillespie's daughter, Nancy, was apparently able
to read and write. No doubt both Nancy and her sister, "Betsey," had
attended the school funded by the St. David's Society which their
father had supported. 
Peek, Elizabeth (I3076)
 
1279 Elizabeth probably died from complications of childbirth. Boyd, Elizabeth M. (I2842)
 
1280 Elizabeth R. Powers, or "Aunt Bettie", was loved by all. Her fingers
flew knitting socks and any child at her knee heard wondrous tales.
Her husband of 24 years was buried in the garden of their home, known
later as the Vicker's place on Yellow Creek.

After living for a while in New Mexico with her daughter Lola, she
returned to her childhood home. In later years, Bettie lived with her
nephew Alpha.

She was 88 years old when she died. She had outlived her husband and
all her children by many years. She was laid to rest beside three of
her children and a grandchild buried in the Powers Cemetery. (Sources:

with Homer Powers; Newspaper Cllipping; Material gathered by Thelma
Hayes and Geneva Swain) 
Powers, Elizabeth R. (I2260)
 
1281 Elizabeth was John's twin. Daugherty, Elizabeth (I6693)
 
1282 Elizabeth's date of birth is based on date of her first child's birth.


There is no record to indicate when Barnabas moved to Fairfax Co. Va.
or whether he and Elizabeth ever lived in Maryland. Richard Radcliff
(a relative of Valinda, wife of Barnabas' brother, Jacob) purchased
a parcel of land in Truro parish held jointly by Lewis, Barnabas and
Elizabeth on 02 Jan 1792 for fifty five pounds two shillings and
sixpence so her death was sometime after this date.

Sometime between 1793 and 1794, Barnabas moved to Union Co. S. C. It
is not known whether
Elizabeth was alive at the time or not. If not, he may have moved
there because Samuel had relatives already living there and his
brother, Jacob, had moved to Georgia. Elizabeth probably was in her
mid forties when she died. If Margaret was born c1795, Elizabeth
would have been near the extremes of motherhood unless she married
fairly young. She might have died in
childbirth.

It is reasonable to assume that Ann is definately Martha's daugher;
that Margaret (Peggy)
could have been born to her c1799 (Adams family names); and that Mary
(06 May 1797) might
conceivably have been Elizabeth's last child.

For purposes of charting, however, until such time as more definite
information comes forth, Elizabeth is assumed to have died in1795 and
Barnabas took Martha Adams as his second wife prior to the birth of
their first child which we assume is Margaret, c1795 (could be c1799)
or Mary, 06 May 1797.

1286 Email Aug 2011 from Regina Taylor (regina_taylor2002@yahoo.com):
i believe that it is the HOSKINS line and that it had to be one of the children from Edwin and Anne's prgeny, i only know that a Ball family thru the Hoskins line migrated to KY or TN and that it passed from the Ball family to the Yeary and Shumate families...it is all so sketchy. Do you have a lineage chart that outlines Anne and Edwin's children to Fairfax county and then from there to KY or TN?

"Sent: Mon, 14 Jan 2008 8:59 pm
To the Herron/Wilson Website:

I just recieved word that Charles passed away shortly after 6pm this
evening. Details on the arrangements will follow.

My prayers and thoughts are with Mike, Ken, Pat and Margieand their
familys.
We love you"
(Bob & Herron)

"Jan. 15, 2008
Bob,
Thank you so much for letting us know. I am sure tht his passing is difficult for you also.
Charles was the first Herron in my life. I think I was 14 or 15 when I met him. He was so full of life, beautiful and heroic to me. My memories of early times spent with him and with Margie, at their marriage and the births of each of their children will always be with me. We had an
agreement to raise the flag on the mailbox if it were a boy, when we spent time as neighbors. I often wonder what happened to the dried up old green cloraphyll toothpaste that we, Jack and I, used to sneak back and forth to him as a joke. He would find a way to give it back to us, and we to him for a number of years. Once, with a bogus return address, we mailed it to
him at a conference that he was attending. It must have finally turned to powder, or is lost in a post office somewhere.
He was so dear. I will cherish that last time I saw him at Marcus' Memorial. Even though he had aged, the sparkle was still in those beautiful blue eyes and he still had a radiance of love around him. Spirit is one thing that age cannot remove.
I am divided in my feelings about his passing. On one hand, I feel so happy for him that he is through his suffering. On the other I feel such sadness that I have seen him for the last time in this life. I do feel deeply that because of his love for us, and our's for him, his presence will be there if and when ever we need it; and I feel that we can still communicate with him through our hearts and minds.
I will not be able to make it to the funeral, so please give Margie, Mike, Ken and Pat a loving hug for me and tell them how sorry I am for their loss.
My love to each of you along with my wish for God's Love to comfort you and take you through this time of loss.
Always,
Martha Jo" (Martha Cross Herron Mordecai)

Hello everybody!
Just made it official...I am flying up to Birmingham Friday night. I don't know many people's plans as of yet...but thought maybe this would get us all talking. I rented a car and will be landing about 8pm, if that helps anyone else. Just let me know. I talked to Dana and she is looking into coming too. I talked to Lee and he will be driving up Sat, probably with Uncle Bob. I talked to Daddy and he will be coming over on Sat. Not sure yet about Brooke. Mama already posted that she won't be able to make it. Hope to see as many of you again as possible!
Much love,
Page" (Page Herron Barker)

"Jan. 15, 2008
Thanks Page.
Great move! I made my reservations earlier today - coming into B'ham at 10:00 AM on Friday and leaving on Saturday at 5:00 - wish I could stay longer. Sue is booking tonight so will let everyone know times and days soon. She's coming in on Friday but not sure when she's leaving.
I've been looking for a place to stay close to the airport - Highlander looks interesting. We are planning on renting a car but if you want to go in and share that would be great - hotel too if you want.
Don is driving up. Not sure about Jody yet, they have to check her schedule. Pat and Linda will be down for sure.
I was wondering if we should gather somewhere Friday night - those who are able?
Ann" (Ann Wilson)

"Jan. 15, 2008
Great Ann!
I have the rental car from 8pm Fri until 4:30pm Sunday. I would be happy to share! (My rate was a total of $64for a midsize) What times do you need the rental car (from and to) Should we just get one for the earliest arrival and turn it in on the last departure? (then share the cost?)
Sharing the hotel would be great! We've all been planning on having an "estrogen weekend" but I sure didn't have this in mind! Friday nite would be wonderful for getting together. Anybody else interested, let us know.
Hugs,
Page" (Page Herron Barker)

I have been catching up with everyone’s notes. First to Margie, Mike, Pat and Ken. We have never felt so far way as we do today and our prayers and hearts are with you. I had just sent Dad an Email to tell him I was coming down on the 7th before he called to tell us the sad news. Patrick was talking about your Dad’s geese and fishing at the lake in Oneonta today. I did not know he even remembered. He remembered every little detail Charles taught him about fishing, the fish, the turtles. You never know what’s going on in a four year old head, or that a 20 year old remembers anything.
I am heading to India on Thursday so we will not make it to the services.
Keep up the reputation of the Lee’s, Lee.
Ann, I would NOT stay close to the airport. Trussville has plenty of places to stay and eat these days and if you have a Sunday return flight, you are no more than 10 mins away.
Love to all,
Lee, NH Lee" (Lee Scott Herron in New Hampshire)

Hey Uncle Scotty,
I got your post but there were no words in it. Are you speechless? Or did it
just not come through?
I am really looking forward to seeing you this weekend! I hope you are doing
ok. I am sure this is hard for you too!
Love you lots!

"Jan. 15, 2008
I am sorry to say that we will not be able to attend this weekend. I have to pick up my kids Friday evening and bring them back to Tennessee. I haven't seen them for a few weeks. For me to get them then drive back to Trussville then back to Tennessee then back to Jasper Al. we would spend more time in the car than visiting with each other. I wish I could
make other plans but there mother is going out of town this weekend also.
I will miss everyone very much.

To All Herrons and Wilsons,
Thank you all so much for your thoughts, prayers and comments. We plan on individually responding to each of you in time. I can't tell you how much it means to all of us especially Mom to hear from each of you. Preliminary arrangements are that Dad will be cremated tomorrow 1\16. The memorial service will be this Saturday at Jefferson Memorial in
Trussville at 12 noon. More details to follow.
Much Love to All!
Mike Herron" (Michael Bentley Herron)

"No, the service will be at 11am, with a two hour visitation to follow.

Brooke,
I couldn’t have worded my regrets any better than you just did. Uncle Charles was such a strong man and I also am so grateful for the times that I got to spend with him, most recently in Florence. Although he looked frail, his mind was very strong. He remembered us all, that in itself touched me as it had been so long since I had last seen him. I always felt privileged when Uncle Charles would come to our house and will always hold dear the visits that I had with him as a child. I will miss him so much, as I’m sure everyone will. Aunt Margie, he was so lucky to have had you to share such a full life with. The Herron/Wilson Clan most definitely has pulled together once again, which makes me feel so fortunate to be a part of this family. I truly am hoping for another gathering that I will be able to be a part of. I will be there in spirit on Saturday and hope that you all know how much I do love each and every one of you. We are blessed to have this group we call family.
Love,
Dana" (Dana Herron Plagens)

Morning Family:
It grieves me to tell you I will not be down for the Memorial. I am just unable to swing it at this time. I have thought about it and mulled it over and just could not find a way. I finally just had to face the reality and am very sad I won't be there.
I felt blessed to have some private moments last fall with Uncle Charles where we sat side by side holding hands and enjoying each others' presence. I will always remember him as profoundly kind, gentle and strongly loving. I feel blessed that he was part of my early life, and continued to be a jewel in my Herron Treasure chest. When I saw him at Marcus', I felt an immediate connection as if we had seen each other only days before. No time had lapsed. He spoke to me in whispers. Yet each comment or question was spoken from a mind that was clear and intently loving towards all that were in attendance that day. He did not speak of himself. I was humbled. (If I had been in that wheel chair, I am sorry to say I would have been the crabbing elderly person wanting the whole world to know about my suffering.) It made me regret that I had not made the effort to include him more in my life.
I will be with you all this weekend in heart and soul. I send my love and ask that the loving presence of Uncle Charles be palatable throughout the weekend. I'm sure it will be.
With all my love,
Brooke" (Brooke Herron Kroto)

"Jan. 16, 2008
To all that can not be there,
We will miss you. This family is amazing in it's support of each other. I know that each of you will be with us in spirit as we celebrate Charle's life and what a life it was. I have so many fond memories of Charles (he taught me to dive of a high dive) and Margie...babysitting Mike when they lived in Florence, laying the floor and reading stories to all tree of the boys, making Ken and Dad a birthday cake with a putting green on it, hanging out at our house, hanging out at their house and so much more. As I often say, if our kitchen table could talk, oh the stories it could tell.
Love to all,
Sue" (Sue Wilson Gruszewski"

Dawn and I are looking in to what we can do. Currently trying to reschedule a few projects that are in progress or starting at the end of this week. So, we are not sure as of yet if we can make it.

I will post more information as the weekend gets closer..
Love you all!!!
