    2. Robert: I enjoyed your nice descripted letter to Gayle about your hometown of Goldsboro. I think I may have received a letter in 1973 from one of your relatives. She had seen my name in the exchange section of a NC Genealogical Reference. She was hoping to find information to enable her grand-daughter to join the children's division of the DAR. She said that her husband was raised in Mt. Olive, NC and is the son of Robert Kornegay 1871-1931; the grandson of Caleb Kornegay 1825-1889 and great grandson of John Kornegay 1798-1887, she went on to say; " The next generation is the one I have not yet found since I have been unable to locate John's father. John was a Baptist minister, built his own church and gave the land for it in 1827. It burned, destroying all of the records. It was called "North Creek, but named North East" when it was rebuilt on land (1818) his heirs gave, one year after his death." She signed her letter Elizabeth Kornegay (Miss Kelly) I was unable to help her at the time, I could not figure who they were. I think that I found out later that John was s/o Martin; s/o Jacob. Is that correct? I also am wondering what she meant about "when it was rebuilt on land (1818) his heirs gave. He died in 1887; can you explain what she may have ment by the date 1818? A couple of years ago someone sent me a copy of the item in a Heritage Book about CALEB FOREMAN RANDOLPH KORNEGAY AND DESCENDANTS by Margaret Tolson which finally helped me figure some of it out and also with the help of Matt. Best wishes from another of Jacob's descendants. Pat Hoffman

    2. Robert L. Kornegay - VP/Director
    3. Gayle, My parents lived on Peachtree Street when I entered the world at Goldsboro Memorial Hospital on August 10 1948. The family moved to 1008 East Walnut when I was about three. I grew up two blocks from the Boy Scout hut at the intersection of Walnut and Evergreen streets. My father Ralph Lee Kornegay (1919-1993) was born and raised in Mt. Olive. Dad was a salesman for Wayne Feed & Seed Co. His territory was the hog, chicken and turkey farms of Eastern NC. I was named for my paternal grandfather who was an accountant with Mt. Olive Pickle Co. and mayor of Mt. Olive before he died in 1931. I remember driving through the country on Sunday afternoons being shown the boundaries of the old Mt. Vernon farm, where my grandfather grew up. My great-grandfather was Caleb Foreman Randolph Kornegay and served as sheriff during the Reconstruction period. I sure wish I had paid more attention to the old stories of slavery, King Cotton and the War of Northen Aggression... My mother was Janet Winslow Rutledge (1920-1982) and my grandmother was Juanita Claire Hunt (1898-1975?). The Rutledge line is from South Carolina via Alabama and includes Edward, who signed the Declaration of Independence, and brother John, governor of SC and signer of the US Constitution. The old Hunt house is still on Williams Street down near the Cemetery. I am very familiar with the area of Goldsboro you lived in. A summer treat was riding my bicycle to the old Ashe Cash drug store for a cherry coke or a fresh-squeezed lemonade. I remember the Odd Fellows Home as an off-limits place (mother's instructions) on my way to the tennis courts at Herman Park. My summers were spent between the pool and the tennis courts. I don't think there was much contact between us locals and the kids in the Home. A dedicated Tarzan fan, I often played "jungle" with friends in the ditch between the IOOF and the Park. After school and on the weekends we played touch football in the yards of the churches around the IOOF. I remember we would have the "Toilet Bowl" in the yard of the big Baptist church where my Boy Scout troup sometimes met. I went to primary school at Walnut Street School, elementary at Williams Street School, and junior high at, well, the Junior High. In 1962 (I was 14) my father built a home on Bogue Sound in Carteret County, but we didn't move until after I completed the Earthquake's J-V football season. I was big, awkward and shy growing up but I bloomed in the non-cliche atmosphere of the laid-back coastal community. I also fell in love with the sea and have been involved with boats ever since. Mt Olive and Goldsboro became places we occassionally visited to see family and old friends. I graduated from West Carteret High School in 1966 and attended NC State University. We still have our home on the White Oak River near Swansboro. Robert -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert L.
