Two others riding in the Buick were seriously injured and are patients at the Dublin Veterans Hospital. The dead are Johnny Cheek, 28, Canuncey verteran teacher and son of Mr and Mrs Charlie B Cheek, and Robert (Bob) Wilson, 41, of Chauncey, son of Mr and Mrs P B Wilson. Injured are Henry J Brown, 31, also of Chauncey, and William B Dykes, 28, of Henlena. Brown has not yet fully regained consciousness, it was reported here today. He suffered severe head injuries.Dykes, at first thought only slightly injured, has developed complications, it is said, and is swelling internally. Excessive speed is attributed by highway patrolmen as the cause of the crash. The men had been to Payne's Sawmill, a few miles from McRae on the Dublin highway, to make plans for produring lumber for a potato hot bed, it is said, and were riding in Cheek's car with him driving. On their return, patrolmen said, the car approached the overpass near Omulgee Park at a high rate of speed, and Cheek, the driver, could not hold it on his side of the road as the car went into the long curve on the opposite side. The vehicle careened to the left side of the road, struck the big truck, driven by Benjamin Leroy, of Augusta, bounced off the truck;s rear dual wheels and plunged down the overpass fill, according to reports. The overpass is approximately two miles from McRae and takes traffic over the Seaboard tracks. Also in same issue or paper was his orbit. Funeral services for Johnny Cheek, 25, killed in the auto-truck crash near McRae Sat. afternoon at 4;30, were conducted at Old Daniel Church Mon. afternoon at 3:30 pm by Rev. Max O'Neal and Rev Michaelson. Songs were rendered by Mrs Wiley Hargrove and Mrs Felix Stuckey, accompanied by Mrs Malone Pace. Pallbearers were: Wall Thompson, Woodrow Bryant, James Studstill, Earl Studstill, Tommy Willcox, Jimmy Lee Willcox and Cheek Davis. Interment was in the churchyard cementery, with Martin-Peacock Funeral Home in charge of arrangements. Mr Cheek attended Rhine High School. He later entered the University of GA from which he graduated. Upon his return to the county, he was employed as a veteran teacher at Chauncey High School. During the recent war he served with the Navy. Surviving are his wife, the former Miss Marjorie Harrell, daughter of Mr and Mrs Jake D Harrell of Eastman; his parents Charlie and Nannie Willcox Cheek; a daughter Bonnie Jo; one brother, Charlie Norman Cheek of Dodge County; four sisters, Miss Alice Cheek, Atlanta; Mrs John L Hancock, Jr., Bay City,Texas; Mrts George C Pace, Port Orange, Fla, and Mrs Melvin C Yeich, Phiadelphia, Pa. I only have the books through 1990, so I couldn't look-up the house fire in 1995. Idid find a marriage announcment for Marge Harrell Cheek. "Thurs, Feb 8 1951... Mr and Mrs Jake D Harrell anounce the marriage of their daughter, Margie Harrell Cheek to David Denneth Foster, son of Mr and Mrs Z K Foster, Thursday, Feb 1, Rev. H B Cross officiating." Bernice

Surnames: Harrell, Cheek, Wilcox, Cain Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Ya.2ADI/606.1.1 Message Board Post: Thank you so much!!! Actually, I am looking for a picture that someone told me they thought was in the Eastman Times Journal. My mother and father both graduated from UGA in August of 1949, and because they had me enrolled in a home ec study there, there was a photo of all of us 'graduating'. I would have been about 2. I would like obituaries also, I just hadn't thought of that yet. I'm new to this. John James Cheek (my father) died in a car wreck January 21, 1950 in Telfair County. My mother (Margie Harrell Cheek Foster) died in a house fire with my stepfather (David)July 10, 1095 in Eastman. My parents are buried together in Old Daniels Cemetary. I have been trying to get military records on my father, but apparently most Naval records burned in a fire in the '70's. The Navy will look for alternate records if I can give them more information, which I don't have. To make a long story shorter - this has gotten me really interested in genealogy. The Harrell side ! of the family has been a breeze, but the rest has proven difficult. If the books have any articals, obits or pictures that I might use, please let me know which books and I will order them. Again, thank you so much.

The Dye family is, also, buried at Friendship Church. I was in Eastman a few years ago and looked the church up. It sure was a tiny church. I suppose his wife was somehow related to your relatives but I didn't know any of them.
