This blog has been created to capture family stories and photos. Pictured are Charlie and Vashti Smith who purchased the farm in 1917.
Where the Story ends ... for now!
Since we do not know where the family began we will start with the newest members.
Zander, Kaden and Addison were born on September 22, 2004 to David and BeLynda who were married on August 4, 2001. Sean was born on May 5, 1994 to Bert and Elizabeth who were married on August 22, 1986.
Bert and BeLynda are the children of Byron and Brenda who were married on July 14, 1962. David and Jonathan are the sons of Sam and Joan who were married on December 27, 1965. Byron, Brenda, Sam and Joan share the same last name making the family tree a bit confusing.
The story goes on and on and on ... so help us fill in the gaps!
Instructions for Adding Stories
When adding a story to this blog be sure to put the year in the labels space. For example ... if you blog about the day Byron and Brenda were married then type the following items in the label field 1962, Byron, Brenda. That way we will have a listing of blogs by the year, Byron and Brenda. It's the best way I can currently think of to sort the stories so that we can track the various family stories.
Since the farm has been in the family for close to 100 years then also include Farm in the label so that we can track all the changes related to the farm.
This photo of BB (Byron Bertice), GG (Kathleen) and Bo (Charles Byron) was taken at the farm in Huntington, Texas. My best guess is that Bo is 5 years old making the year 1947.
