In letter from Lenora B. (Mrs. James M.) Williams; 408 Sunbrook Ave.; Birmingham, AL 35215 re. "Trummie D. Buckelew." Paternal family moved to Carroll co., GA. Lived at Mt. Zion, GA, northwest of Carrollton. Had bought about 100 acres of land. "Children of this marriage... Sons: Lawrence, Ray, and T.D., Jr.; daughters: Grace (Weinberg), Myrl, Maude, and Lemma." Later (Trummie) lived in Virginia. Trummie was a traveling salesman. Ron's list (see below) of sons Trummie D. Buckelew are the same as mine but the daughters are not all the same. I can't account for that. I do know that a daughter was named Grace and one was Lemma. (She may really be the Peggy in his listing.) Not sure about the others. "

 Les,     I noticed that Charles M. Richeson, my cousin, said our grandmother's maiden name was Hudgins.  I have a copy of the burial permit and the obituary for Trumer D. Buckelew, Sr. and it states, "Surviving are his widow, Mrs. Ella Dee Hughens Buckelew." I also have a letter from her daughter, Grace, that states that her mother's maiden name was Hughens. A few years ago, I had an e-mail from a relative of hers, and his last name was Hughens. I corresponded with him and he gave me additional information on the Hughens family.    Doug
