Dear C. Koch and Listers, I am from the South where rhubarb grew wild, and where my mother made rhubarb pies. My brothers and I never cared for those pies very much. I, for one, would rather have a plate of grits. Maybe even a peacock pot pie. Tom C.

does everyone in the world love rhubarb pie or just A*'s??? it's my absolute #1 favorite and i haven't had it for years since my grandmother made it for me on the farm. she tricked me into eating it - to my later delight. Cherie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Toni Perry" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, October 07, 2006 4:00 PM Subject: Re: [ARMSTRONG] OT My favorite rhubarb pie recipe is a single crust with a crunch topping a lot like that on Dutch apple. A couple of our bakery/restaurants have rhubarb pies during "season" but I haven't figured out where they go to find "seasons." We have berries from Chile in the winter at the markets, but can't remember seeing fresh rhubarb. It is usually available in the freezer. I have 3 - 4 tomato plants which grow out of my compost every year and provide enough tomatoes until Thanksgiving or Christmas - whenever our first chilly weather arrives - to annoy everyone I know. Anyone who makes the mistake of coming by during the season is forced to take a bag home with them. I also have 4 dwarf citrus trees - lemon, orange, grapefruit and tangerine which overwhelm us with citrus, but no rhubarb - which I love. Too bad I can't ship someone citrus in exchange for some fresh rhubarb. A few years back when I had kids at BYU I did ship a few boxes of citrus to them. Pretty costly.

Somebody mentioned the Winthrop Group. I tried Googling it but couldn't find anything about the ship they came on. How do I find it? Thanks Marylin

Dear Marie, If you are asking me, the ship William and Mary, built in Bath, Maine was launched in 1853 and was on it's maiden voyage from Bath to Liverpool, where it picked up 208 passengers and left for New Orleans. The ship when down in a storm in the Bahamas and all the passengers were reported as drown. However, most of them were picked up by natives on rafts and by a wrecking schooner and a couple of other small boats. None of my Armstrongs were aboard. My scottish ancestors were the Browns, a family of five, John Brown and his wife and three sons. They all survived. Jeannie Belle Brown and decendent of John Brown Jr. was my grandmother and she married Charles F. Armstrong in Iowa in 1905. I believe there was more than one ship named William and Mary.

My ARMSTRONG lineage is via my GG Grandmother, MARY ARMSTRONG STREET. Her descendancy has been traced back as follows: MARY23 ARMSTRONG : (JOHN22, ROBERT JAMES JR.21, ROBERT SR.20, JOHN III19, JOHN II18, THOMAS II17, WILLIAM (CHRISTY'S WILL)16, CHRISTOPHER (JOHN'S CHRISTY)15, JOHNNIE14, ALEXANDER13, THOMAS12, ARCHIBALD11, ALEXANDER IV10, ALEXANDER III9, ALEXANDER II8, BRUCE7, WILLIAM6, ALEXANDER5, JOHN CAMERON "JOHN THE RED"4, ALAN JOHN3, DAVID2, HENRY1) Mary was born Abt. 1795 in Tennessee, and died 1834 in Mississippi, Missionary Jasper. She married SOLOMON STREET 1811 in Mississippi, Missionary, son of JOSEPH STREET and MILLIE UNKNOWN. He was born 1788 in North Carolina, and died December 1850 in Mississippi. I guess that ,according to that list, most ARMSTRONGs are my cousins.

Cherie... Why do you suppose the pioneers called it Pie Plant...??? I don't know if he brought the knowledge with him from Norway, or perhaps picked up on it in his travels through Europe after completeing an apprenticeship in a steam factory, Or perhaps his Swedish wife told him... but my Gr Grandfather Hans Anderson was quite well known in the Sandhills of Nebraska for the wine he made from Rhubarb...!!!

A real Border Armstrong would have stole the rhubarb, and forced someone else to make the pie. lol -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Marilyn Otterson Sent: Saturday, October 07, 2006 3:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ARMSTRONG] OT Dear Carmelita Marilynn, You can buy frozen rhubarb, all cleaned and nicely cut to pop right into a pie shell. It's almost as good as going out, pulling it, cutting off the leaves, washing it, cutting it up yourself! :^) I don't like to eat piecrust (even though I love the homemade kind) so I put it in unbaked pie shell with about a cup of sugar, 3 T. flour and a couple of eggs...all mixed up with a tiny bit of milk...poured on, then baked. Start at about 400 for 10 mintues then lower oven to 350 for about 45 minutes. This is a lot easier than making a two crust pie. If you are in a hurry, buy the already fixed pie shell in the store.
