Thank you Kathy for your generous postings. Samuel Marion NAYLOR below is the son of George Truman NAYLOR and Rosanna NEWCOMB. Can someone help with his daughters husbands? Thank you Linda Manning In a message dated 2/7/01 1:36:10 PM, mkbowlin@iland.net writes: << S. M. Naylor celebrated his 80th birthday at the home of his son, Wm. F, Oct 19. About 40 of his children, grandchildren, relatives and intimate friends were present. At the noon hour a genuine old fashioned dinner, such as the country home can boast of was served. There was an abundance of roast turkey, mutton, vegetables and delicious cakes. A large fruit cake was worthy of special mention. It was a thing of beauty and fit for the daintiest appetite. The table was beautifully decorated with autumn flowers. His five children, Samuel P., Mrs. G. W. Reed, Mrs. D. Price and Mrs. S. H. Hitt of Fayette, and Wm. F., were present. Late in the afternoon the guests departed, each wishing the kind old gentleman many more happy birthdays. >>
