Hey Ken, I have a very limited background in my family history, but the only thing I'm sure of is that my grandfather is Hubert Delbert Palmertree. >From what I've learned through this group and from conversations with Lynn Palmertree, Hubert had one or more wives prior to marrying my grandmother (whom I don't know personally) and Lynn's husband was one of 5? Kids that resulted from one of these marriages. So, I'm not sure about "Donald G. and Margarett" that you mentioned below as my grandparents since I've never heard of them before.

This is how I have your family tree. If I am on the wrong track, do let me know.

Hi, Ken and Donny, I also don't have my Duck's, 'Palmertree's" , in a row for these two Robert Palmertree's... 1st - I have Lori Ann as a daughter of Robert Wayne and Virginia Lynn Higginbotham... 2nd - I have Bobby Joe, Billy Ray, Tommy Dale, and Donny James as son's of Robert Ray and Rebecca Jane Britt... I think that I may have the Robert's in the wrong place. I will go back again and look, but if you will Donny, tell me again your mother's name...

Peggy, Mr. Mcelroy, and Ken, The 2nd option is correct with Robert Palmertree being my father, and my mother being Rebecca Jane Britt. My three older brothers are correct as listed below. However, after talking with Lynn Palmertree, we realized that Hubert Delbert (my grandfather who passed away in 95) had previous wive(s) and multiple other children, one of which is named Robert Palmertree. This is Lynn's husband. So, to summarize (and please correct me if I'm wrong): Barrantine and Tobitha Green had Hubert Delbert Palmertree. Dock Palmertree adopted Hubert Delbert Palmertree after Barrantine ran off. Hubert Delbert had three children, one of which was also named Hubert Delbert Palmertree (jr). Hubert Delbert had a Robert Palmertree with his first marriage. Then he had another Robert Palmertree with his second marriage. This is my Father. The first Robert is Lynn's husband. Does that make sense? Lynn did I get it right?
