My mother was from Beefhide and grew up at Thornton. I'm doing the family history now and this is amazing. I would love to get good copies of some of those pictures. Grandparents were George W. and Maxie Alta (Wallace) Wright. Thank you!
Thanks for posting that! It was interesting to see where my mother, Ruby Mae Hogg, grew up in the 1930's and '40s (she left in the early 1950s to join the Air Force). I watched to see if any of my ancestors were pictured. I saw a couple Hoggs, but I don't think they were in my direct lineage.
I come from a long line of moonshiners! Loved the photo of Stephen Fields. I am a Fields on both sides of my family. I have to claim him as an ancestor too.
My dads family is from Jenkins KY . Most of them have past or moved decades ago . MY uncle was pretty well known there Raymond Smith . I've not been to Whitesburg or Jenkins in 30 plus years . I remember the beautiful mountains I'm from western Ohio where its flats . I'll show my dad the picture towards the end of the Smith Brothers from Jenkins maybe that's my grandfather who knows.
My mother's side of the family is from letcher my great great great grandmother was Amanda Holcomb married a Phillips I don't know much about them but my uncle still lives there with his family

i enjoyed looking but i have 10 on one side and 7 on the other of my parents family, and they were VERY WELL KNOWN. im sad cuz none of them are on there.
Nicole Hall I think there are several Arlie Hall’s but two of them passed in 1962. I have since met a sister that proceeded to find not only me but four other siblings. Also found out that this Arlie born in southern Indiana. I’m wondering if they didn’t start out in Letcher Kentucky.
im looking for potters too John Boone Potter lived in Neon and was a Baptist preacher. then his son Enoch lived in Shelby Gap area. house still stands. he married Josephine Bently from Jenkins...
@@SuperTinaFaye My grandmother was Blanche Potter Barnett and another relative is Roy Bently. I've had a hard time unfortunately, with my family history from that area. If they are related I don't know, but can find out.
My family and I are of the Caudill family. We didn't know our grandfather, Kellos Caudill. However, we would love to hear from anyone that knew of him or his kin. Our extended family include the Crocketts and Cornetts of Letcher Co.

Are you related to an Arlie Hall that passed in 1962
Arlie Hall was my grandfather. His father's name was Lee Hall. Don't know if there was another Arlie.
Nicole Hall I think there are several Arlie Hall’s but two of them passed in 1962. I have since met a sister that proceeded to find not only me but four other siblings. Also found out that this Arlie born in southern Indiana. I’m wondering if they didn’t start out in Letcher Kentucky.
No potters or reeds?
