So if you see a gray Honda minivan wandering aimlessly around in a couple of weeks you'll know its me. ;-) About how many minutes does it take to get from, say, Memphis, to Rutledge or Gorin. I'm trying to get a feel for distances. Also, do people tend to drive the speed limits around there, even out in the country? Here in Michigan people always speed, even in town its always at least 5 mph over the speed limit and on the highways seems like 80-85 is normal.

Hi Ellen, My cousin has lived all her life in Memphis. She works in Kirksville and drives it every day. She describes the roads as "country". And always drives with caution as there is always a cow, horse, buck, etc who thinks they own the road. HAHA!! Have a fun and safe trip. And if you get a chance give us a report when you get back.

Hi Ellen I am sorry about my direction. I was a deputy sheriff for 15 years in Scotland Co., MO and it was simple for me just to use the old back county directions. The black top road was a state maintained highway for several years and was traded back to the county. And like I said if you travel to the end of the black top road and where it becomes a gravel road, at this point is where you turn to your left and travel up the hill on the gravel road. The Indian Creek cemetery is on your right, when you reach the top of the hill. I used this location several times in catching under age drinking. Walt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ellen R.

You're welcome--one more comment, Walt said you take the paved road just east of Rutledge to get to Indian Creek. That's true, but--the road is not marked and there are two or three left turn roads coming out of Rutledge--if it sounds like I missed it on the first try, your right. The fellow who lives at the turn off must get tired of folks asking if that is the road. When you finally get on the road and the pavement runs out there is a farm on your right. You can continue going straight, but the gravel kind of turns to the left before going up the hill. You cannot see the cemetery t until you crest the hill. It is always padlocked so you have to climb over the gate. The paved road kind of goes on longer than you think it should--making you wonder if you are lost again. You're not, you're just way out in the country.

There's a great Mennonite store and cafe there called Zimmermans. If you're in the area of Rutledge, it's a must see. JOhn On Monday, April 28, 2003, at 08:53 AM, Ellen R.

> > >Am looking for info on the PRUETT Family and Related Families. Am putting together a family tree. > I have a Mary Catherine Pruitt who was my 2nd great grandmother. She was born in Clark County, but was married and lived in Scotland County in the Arbela area. There are also a lot of Pruitts who lived in the Rutledge area, and it's possible that my Mary Catherine came from their line as well since one of them, a Laborn Pruitt, was living in Clark County about the same time she was born, and he had a daughter named Mary "Callie". Since Callie is a common nickname of Catherine, it is possible that they are one and the same. I have a good sized gedcom I received from one of the relatives of the Rutledge Pruitts if you want it, though I can't swear to its accuracy. -- David Shelton Ancestory website http://www.interl.net/~davestoy/des/aqwx.htm Researching the surnames of: BILLS CLARK CLINE FRUIT/FRUITT/PRUITT HOBSON RUSSELL SHELTON SMITH WILLIAMSON GOLLIHER Have information for: ALBRECHT/ALBRIGHT DEAN/DEEN FAUST/FOUST ROCKHOLD TENNEY/TINNEY UNDERWOOD
