Mike There is a DELK Newsletter sent out every 3 months. There is a vast amount of info here...Daggone aol and rootsweb will duplicate the URL..Can't figure out why...Anyone else know???

Rootsweb Administrator for Anderson, Campbell and Fentress Tennessee Counties
I just want to thank, Shirley and Milly for the delk information. It was helpful since i did not have it. I just talked with my cousin. She said, her mother Ruby (Delk) Sandridge and her parents and at least another daughter was buried in Pine Hill Cemetery but i think it was in Whitley County, KY. I am now on a quest to look how to contact the cemetery office if any. My cousin said most of the graves are unmarked with no headstone, but she knew where they were. I am wondering how many of my Delk family members are buried in same cemetery. I descend from Gilbert Delk and Prudence Fox through their son William Delk. But many of the family members and cousins lived in Jelico, Tn area and Corbin, KY. Some in Scott County, TN and Casey County, KY. Seems like know one knows where any of these people are buried that we have. Thanks Mike

Cate, 83, of Oliver Springs, Robert Pritchett George, 79, or Oak Ridge, Clifford Taylor Harmon, 81, of Claxton, died of a heart attack Sunday, Oct. 31, 2004. Born Aug. 9, 1923, in Orleans, Ind., he was the son of Clifford Dewey and Hallie Fern Harmon. He graduated from Orleans High School, and later earned a psychology degree from Purdue University and his master's degree in psychology from the University of Mississippi. During World War II, he served in the U.S. Army Air Force as a radioman. He was a strong supporter of the Second Amendment Foundation. He spent 10 years as a field director for the American Red Cross assigned to military installations in the Southeast, and five years with the Red Cross in Germany. During the Vietnam War, Mr. Harmon served for seven years with the Agency for International Development Refugee program. According to his family, a story was told about how Mr. Harmon made a paper airplane for a young refugee boy in a small Vietnamese village. Upon returning to the village a year later, he found the child delighted to show him the cherished paper airplane he still had after all that time. Mr. Harmon dedicated his life to helping others, according to his family. He retired in 1974 from the U.S. State Department after injuries sustained in a plane crash in Vietnam in service to his country. His family said he also found time during his life to pursue personal interests with an intensity that demonstrated his intellectual and creative spirit. When he developed an interest in a subject, he engrossed himself in that topic until he emerged an expert. Some examples of his extraordinary abilities were fly fishing - he made his own lures; scuba diving - he had all the equipment; organic gardening - he grew the biggest vegetables in the neighborhood; jewelry making; gemology; lapidary arts; woodworking - he made Lincoln logs for his grandchildren; framing and matting pictures; target shooting; and painting - in oils, watercolors, and tole. His family also said he also had a life-long love/hate relationship with golf. Sometimes the clubs would dance through the air along with the golf balls. He also loved to read science fiction novels, Louis L'amour westerns, and solve crossword puzzles. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by one brother. Mr. Harmon is survived by his wife of 52 years, Bernice Rose Harmon; his daughters, Sandra Harmon of Sandy, Utah, and Deborah Harmon of Maryville; his sons, Clifford D. Harmon of Dallas, Texas, and Charles E. Harmon of Powell; and by eight grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, a brother and five sisters.

They are currently in order of record number, I am working on changing this but it will take sometime while I work on Scott County Marriages. Until then you can go to Edit, Find in Internet Explorer to find a name. I would enter in a link, but I seem to have bad luck doing so through earthlink. If you go to my page on the left you will see Tennessee and then marriages and you can select Vol H. Nov. 1898 to Aug 1900 or Vol I.
