This Is The Place: Bits & Peices

...for pictures, etc. of home, school, church, family to pair with blog posts. My hope is to bring these people to life, show how they related to one another, turning the puzzle pieces into a real picture of our family's past. Once the names become familiar, and the stories of who their neighbors were, where they fell on the timeline of things, who accompanied them to war, who was their pastor, their neighbor, their friend - a bigger picture will take shape. I'll share websites and research materials to help tell the story & show that these stories are not just someone's imagination?

ROBERT AND KATIE ANGLINS HOMEPLACE

This first set of pictures on the right side are of what my mother, Virginia Maude Roland, used to call "the old homeplace." Located in Yancey Co. NC. It was at the end of the road now called WILL ANGLIN ROAD. A large portion of land from Bank's Creek Rd. all along Will Anglin Rd. once belonged to our ancestor, William Anglin, son of Isaac and Nancy Anglin. Isaac was the son of William Anglin of Anglin's Ford of the Tygart Valley, in West Virginia. This land was handed down through the Anglin family and broken into lots belonging mostly to extended family over the years. No one resides on Katie and Robert's old homeplace at this time. Well, at least not out by the house.
