Davies" <gedavies@iamerica.net> Greg - Hopes this finds you and yours in great shape. As thesubject says, I would like some help in locating the EmersonB. Agan family as I have inherited many family pictures of thisfamily and would like to see that they receive them. The Winnfield connection is: Emerson's wife was the formerAlsie McGuffee, daughter of E. R. McGuffee who in the 1950'sor thereabouts, resided in Winnfield. Alsie worked for a timein the Washington D. C. office of one of the members of congress.I believe that to be Allen Ellender but am not sure on that orif it was while he was a representative or senator, if indeedthat is who she worked for. I rather believe that she met Emersonwhile living in D. C. and perhaps while he was in the service,possibly during WW 2. Some of this is pure speculation. What isn't speculation is that they lived in Alexandria during the1950's as there are many pictures of their son, Steven while astudent at Rugg Elementary school there. Any help that wouldn't entail a lot of work on your part will beappreciated. Forrest efcook@centurytel,net
