    1. [VABEDFOR] Reply to Elizabeth Bowles Fugua
    2. Linda Lang

    3. Dear Cheryl, I would like to think we solved the mystery of Elizabeth Boyle, but in the division of her father's property in 1834, she is mentioned as living in the county of Sullivan, IN. Nor does it say her married name is Fuqua. In Deed Book 24, pg 500-501 Elizabeth Boyle of Sullivan County, IN inherits 120 acres of Lot 4 of her father's estate. She promptly sells her lot to James D Watts on 6 July 1835. In this particular deed, she listed as of Bedford Co, VA. The mystery continues as to her story. Thanks, Linda Boyle Lang DAR Patriot- Robert Boyle Longwood, FL

    2. Thomas A. Markham

    3. Dear List Members: When I was a young boy and we had gone to Bedford Virginia for the summer, I remember the summer of 1944. I remember it was a time of sad faces and broken hearts. Back then I could not really fathom the great loss that Bedford had sustained, but as I have grown older and now know the real story of all our brave solders that hit Omaha Beach on that morning of June 6, 1944, I can realize the great loss that summer long ago held for many Bedford families. I have added a page entitled "The Bedford Boys" to my web presentation, Bedford Photo Gallery, the URL is: http://www.tommymarkham.com/BedfordPictures/BPG-11.htm . When you have time visit this page, I know it will have a lasting effect on you as it has on me. Tommy Thomas A. Markham [email protected] Home Page: http://www.tommymarkham.com

    3. Thanks for the explanation Jean...sorry to be such a bother.

    3. As a tribute to these brave soldiers, why doesn't someone in Bedford post names of all at least the 19 who died. As a 6 year in Paris Texas, I remember WWII neighbor men killed or wounded. There was large Camp Maxey near that trained 300,000 men. We could hear and feel artillery practice day and night. One can only imagine what these men on D-Day felt. Paris Texas was small town, all these men had to be quartered off base. A man from NYC lived a few months with my folks, he took me to Toy Store and all toys I could carry he bought. He was killed 6 days after D-Day. Never knew or remembered his name, toys and learning he was killed is all I can recall. So thanks to my "Yankee Hero" where ever you are!!!!!

    1. [VABEDFOR] The Bedford Boys
    2. Thomas A. Markham

    3. Dear List Members: When I was a young boy and we had gone to Bedford Virginia for the summer, I remember the summer of 1944. I remember it was a time of sad faces and broken hearts. Back then I could not really fathom the great loss that Bedford had sustained, but as I have grown older and now know the real story of all our brave solders that hit Omaha Beach on that morning of June 6, 1944, I can realize the great loss that summer long ago held for many Bedford families. I have added a page entitled "The Bedford Boys" to my web presentation, Bedford Photo Gallery, the URL is: http://www.tommymarkham.com/BedfordPictures/BPG-11.htm . When you have time visit this page, I know it will have a lasting effect on you as it has on me. Tommy Thomas A. Markham [email protected] Home Page: http://www.tommymarkham.com
