I am looking for information for a Mitchell Baughn who died abt. 1766 in Amherst Co. There was an inventory and Samuel Baughn from Bedford Co. was administrator. Does anyone have information about this Baughn (or possibly Vaughn)? Thank you.
Anita, give me your grandparents names. I am over in Amherst Co. but plan to be not to far from Ridgecrest BC in a couple of weeks. I will do my best to get that photo you desire .

If you go to the web site "Find a grave" and sign up, you can request someone who lives in that area to go and photograph it, and they will. The people who join that web site help each other with their requests and it is free.

On Sat. afternoon July 18/2009, I had the opertunity to witness a group of 14 Senior Citizens of Nelson & Amherst Counties assemble in Lovingstion, Neldon County SEAT/Court House & relate their Experence's with the Re building Nelson County from one of Americas worst Natural Disaster of all time, <Disaster of altime> Because I am inclined to Doubt if Any other area of this size has any more Damage Than this small area. I made my first truck driving trip through Nelson County in 1949, There many more trips through the County until 1995, I was through Nelson County right after the Storm, seeing how awful it was. Regreatably My heasring is So that I could not Understand the wo rds from those 14 Wise Members of Nelson & Amherst County but Being there With My Younger Family Members was awsome from the word Go.

Eastern Daylight Time, brb1933@mebtel.net writes: I'm not kin to the Campbell's but I live across from them in the early fifties in Concord. Knew Harold, Tommy and Donald "Duck" real well. Camm was in the sawmill business when he first moved to Concord, Then later built and ran a Texaco station on Hwy 460 in Concord. I dealt with Camm and they built a new home on road beside station. I left Concord in 1958 and lost contact with a lot of folks. Have been reconnecting with a lot of those folks in the area in the past 5 years but nothing about the Campbell's. Harold at 1 time worked for Leggett's in Bedford and think Tommy worked in the station. The station building is still there but I believe it's a NAPA parts store. Raymond Massie also lived across street from where I lived. I guess Raymond has also passed on. I live in NC so don't have much time when I'm in area.

I'm not kin to the Campbell's but I live across from them in the early fifties in Concord. Knew Harold, Tommy and Donald "Duck" real well. Camm was in the sawmill business when he first moved to Concord, Then later built and ran a Texaco station on Hwy 460 in Concord. I dealt with Camm and they built a new home on road beside station. I left Concord in 1958 and lost contact with a lot of folks. Have been reconnecting with a lot of those folks in the area in the past 5 years but nothing about the Campbell's. Harold at 1 time worked for Leggett's in Bedford and think Tommy worked in the station. The station building is still there but I believe it's a NAPA parts store. Raymond Massie also lived across street from where I lived. I guess Raymond has also passed on. I live in NC so don't have much time when I'm in area.
