Thanks for the obit and I'm so sorry about your grandfather. I don't think I knew him, but Bonita was a cousin of mine and mother and I lived with her grandmother for a school year about 1945/46.

Dear Damian, sorry to hear about your grandfather. I beleive I saw that in the Oakland Press, but I wasn't able to drive myself at that time. I live in Rochester myself. In the 60's I brought my dad Elmer (Sparkie) Taulbee all around that area to visit his cousins. The family I remember was the Morton and Effie Taulbee. Idid a lot of research for the TAulbee book. My dad and my husband both got sick at the same time. Dad died 75 and my husband 77. Wasn't the late Bonita a Curtis? Didn't your family have the Garbage disposal business for a while?There is others that I would like to ask you about. A cousin, Manda Jane ----- Original Message ----- From: "Taulbee, Damian (D.M.)" <DTAULBEE@visteon.com> To: <TAULBEE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 10:14 AM Subject: [TAULBEE-L] James Franklin Taulbee > Hello All, > > I see I have a ot of cousins out there.
