Hi from western Virginia

[kenmbz]

Thanks for the welcome, Ken. I wasn't far from your area, last week. Elysburg. Don

Were you by Knoebels ? Pretty far west of me, nice area

 

[Solar Oak]

Just a couple miles NW of Knoebels. My cousin has property in that area and I go up for vacation. This time was mostly cutting trees, to clear his roads.

Welcome! most of my family came from, and still lives the Shenandoah valley/ Harrisonburg area.

Thanks! Let me know, next time you're in the area. Wouldn't it be funny, if one of them were my neighbor?

There's a good chance, Bowman, Anderson, Lambert, Ritchie and Rhodes are some of the family names in the area. Also have some Mennonite in the family there.

They just sold and tore down one of the old family farm houses recently, was located in front of JMU off 81, little white 2 story house with a couple out buildings, almost looked out of place with all the development. Wish I could have bought it.
