    2. A. C. Wilson, III
    3. Hi ya'll from South Carolina: Food's got the same name here, but sure isn't fixed the same. Barbecue ain't barbecue (they gotta put some kind of vinegar in it). They call something chicken bog that should be good ole chicken and dressin' entree. One thing that really bothers me is they mispronounce - right here in the South - basically where the south all began, that delicious nut that makes such a wonderful pie that we all love so much. I want to tell them I don't have any pee cans, but I do have a bathroom if they need one. Miss you guys. I am so tired of trying to locate any Wilson, Hill or Downs descendants of my William/Zachariah Hill/Dr. William R. Downs line in Harrison/Panola (Elysian Fields/Waskom areas), that I am going to try to throw out names that some of Zachariah's girls married and see if I get a bite: Harriet L. Hill (this was William Hill's daughter, but want to try it in too) b. c1830 married William Barnes first then Stephen Terry second (Stephen committed suicide in 1886). Harriett Nettie Hill (b. 03/19/1877) married Mr. James R. Barbour (I have copies of photos of these two); Ruby Hill (b. 09/12/1878) married C. G. H. Wheless; Other surnames that married Hill daughters in or around Harrison County were SURLES, JONES (guess I better be a little more specific about Jones - Douglas M. Jones; ALEXANDER; BOMAR; down the line a little there's even some WASKOMs and SCOTTs. Let me hear from you guys.
