Hello Folks,
 
      Family stories - I`ve heard different versions of some family stories, but I wrote them as best I could remember, who told them and what they told.   You might have heard different versions of some of the stories. Hopefully some of these stories will give recognition of what life was like for members of older generations throughout the 1900`s.
 
     I tried to include many family member names in the stories.  I tried to give credit to the persons giving the info and stories.
 
     Please share these stories with all of your family and future generations.
 
     Thanks to Carmen, Mary, and Jasmine for helping put this family website together.
 
     Please contribute generously to the Ida Bounds Music Scholarship Fund.
 
 
                                 Love Y’all,
 
                               
                                 Bill Bounds
 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
P. S.  If you have more family stories or info, please write and share with all your kinfolk and future generations. I`m sure some of you have stories that are funnier and more significant than the ones that I have written.
