Hi Ron, Do you have anymore information on Jesse Lewis and Mary Thompson? I had Jesse's birthdate as June 1, 1796. You say that his birthdate is June 11, 1796. Where did you get your information. I show he was born in NC and that Mary Thompson was born in Tennessee. As for Mary's parents, I only have their names. Do you have birth and death dates for them and where their origins were? Any additional information that you have would be greatly appreciated. Pat from California

I've included the request so that everyone could see it. Didn't want anyone to think I'd gone off into one of my Moon Pie lectures unsolicited. In a message dated 5/1/99 10:20:37 AM EST, mjones@2xtreme.net writes: << Still looking for Moon Pies here in California, and still looking for IRICK & LETT connections. BTW, what is the origin of the name "Moon Pies"? >> I am told by my Moon Pie spies that you should look for a snack cake called Skooter Pies. Look on the label and if they're made in Chattanooga you have the real deal. Need more information about this taste treat? Check out www.moonpie.com OK you asked for it here's the history of the Moon Pie. It got it's name because of it's shape and the fact that the first of them to be mass produced were yellow (vanilla). The Chattanooga Bakery was founded in the early 1900's as a subsidiary of the Mountain City Flour Mill in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The bakery's original purpose was to use the excess flour produced by the mill. By 1910, the bakery offered over 200 different confectionery items. In 1917, the bakery developed a product which is still known as the MOON PIE. The exact history of how the MOON PIE was invented was never documented by the Chattanooga Bakery, but one historian, Ronald Dickson of Charlotte, North Carolina, believes he found the "missing link." In his book, "The Great American Moon Pie Handbook", Mr. Dickson had written of the Moon Pie's ® lost history. Not long after his book was published, he received a telephone call from Earl Mitchell, Jr., identifying his deceased father, Earl Mitchell, Sr., as the person responsible for the invention of the Moon Pie ®. Mr. Mitchells story goes like this ... Early in the 1900s, while servicing his territory of Kentucky, Tennessee and West Virginia, Mr. Mitchell was visiting a company store that catered to the coal miners. He asked them what they might enjoy as a snack. The miners said they wanted something for their lunch pails. It had to be solid and filling. About how big?,! Mr. Mitchell asked. Well about that time the moon was rising, so a miner held out his big hands, framing the moon and said, About that big! So, with that in mind, Mr. Mitchell headed back to the bakery with an idea. Upon his return he noticed some of the workers dipping graham cookies into marshmallow and laying them on the window sill to harden. So they added another cookie and a generous coating of chocolate and sent them back for the workers to try. In fact, they sent Moon Pie ® samples around with their other salespeople, too. The response they got back was so enormous that the Moon Pie ® became a regular item for the bakery. By the late 1950's, the Moon Pie ® had grown in popularity, so much that the bakery did not have the resources available to produce anything else. The phrase "RC Cola and a Moon Pie ®" became well known around the South, as many people enjoyed this delicious, bargain-priced combination. Chip

Lynn, I would like to know more about your WEAVER line. Thanks, Sheree
The winner was........ raedavissm@mindspring.com With the only correct answer to my question..."What is a Thagamizer?" A good runner up would be ujhale@webtv.net who gave us the following response: The Game-izer must be one who makes a game of everything or is it GAMS as in legs and what kind of game would that be? Don't know what kind of game that is and I'm not really sure I want to know. lizard@usit.net made a good showing too as we launched into a discussion of doomerwatchits and thing-a-ma-bobs. Thagamizer: >From Gary Larson's The Far Side. It is from the comic strip that featured a Neanderthal teaching school to little cave kids. On the board is drawn a stegosaurus tail. He is pointing at one of the spikes and says " These are known as Thagamizers after the late Thag Orsen who discovered them". Now we can only speculate on how he discovered these spikes and why he is now "The late Thag Orsen". Don't worry my wife doesn't get The Far Side either. Bet all you new people wonder just what kind of list you joined don't you? I promise this doesn't happen very much. Just when it slows down. Chip Union County TnGenWeb thagamizer@aol.com
