San Diego Postcard

I happened upon a beautiful postcard this morning, San Diego Mission Palm Postcard. The post entitled “San Diego Mission Palm,” was an entry on Wild Postcards by Chris Overstreet on Apr 02 2009. Thought you would like to take a look and then enjoy some of the beautiful cards on "Wild Postcards: a (Re)Collection".

Tombstone Tuesday - Davis Monument

Davis

On a hillside in a cemetery close to the Tennessee and North Carolina state line. All of the tombstones were slanting toward the top of the hill and the church. There were several square stones placed in the ground on an angle.

I wonder if the family could be related to my husband's
Davis ancestors in Maryville, Tennessee.

Blanchard Cemetery

Blanchard

McClain Co.

Oklahoma

While traveling to Kansas City in April of 2005 we made a detour to Blanchard, Oklahoma, where some of our ancestors are buried. Blanchard is a pretty little town and looks a lot like East Texas to me. There were more trees than I had imagined.

As you can see, there is a beautiful tree just steps from my great-grandparents' headstone. They are in the foreground of the picture above.

Great-Grandparents

Harvey Vandegar Puckett

May 27, 1871 - Feb. 19, 1958

Alice Puckett

Aug. 1, 1872 - July 17, 1954

I was standing looking southwest from my great-grandparents' grave when I took this photograph. It's a beautiful cemetery.

You can find more of my Puckett ancestors at my blog, Genealogy Traces, where I will be posting the other pictures that I took the day we stopped here to go down "memory lane."
