Does anyone know anything about an A. R. Gleason?( I believe this to be correct). He was my aunt's father, I don't have her mother's name. My aunt, Captula Gleason m. Raymond Nunn. They lived most of their lives, esp. the two decades in Pulaski, VA. Both died in Pulaski and were buried in Dublin in Highland Memorial Gardens. Cap died in 1992 and Raymond died in 1987. I know Ray's dates and siblings and parents, he was my mom's brother. I have their children's names. Just don't have info on Captula Gleason Nunn's parents and siblings. Thanks in Advance

He is listed in the 1850 Census as being 46 and a farmer. He is not in the 1860 census. John William was my great-great-great grandfather. I need to know his date of death. Virginia Bureau of Vital Records indicates their records are sketchy from 1853 to 1912. Any information on his year of death would be most helpful.

He was a painter of ability, some of the portraits he painted in early life are still treasured and show an unusual gift along this line. Becoming interested in mining he applied himself to that work until he had mastered it in many details. He was a delightful conversationalist and being well read was a very interesting man. In 1907 he moved back to Gettysburg, buying the Blocher house on Seminary Ridge and after occupying it for two years returned with his family to Pulaski. The body was brought to Gettysburg on Wednesday morning and funeral was held from the Episcopal Church of the Prince of Peace at 11 o'clock and internment in the Evergreen Cemetery.

Thanks to Chris Moore's generous donation of some photographs we now have the following story for you; Valley View Apartment Explosion, April 27, 1956 http://www.rootsweb.com/~vapulask/disaster/valleyview/explosion.html Tami Ramsey

I have a special surprise for everyone!! I managed to purchase on EBAY the 1923 Pulaski County High School annual and I've scanned up the majority of it and put it online for you! http://www.rootsweb.com/~vapulask/edu/1923/index1923.html And the person that I purchsed it from is also donating some photographs of the Valley View Apartments explosion that I will scan up and put online when I receive them next week. So everyone enjoy my tremendous find (and Pam Jones....Dewey Dalton is in the class of 1926...he was Vice President of the student body!) Another funny note is that Conway Smith (the gentleman who wrote "The Land that is Pualski County") was the 1924 class Historian! Tami Ramsey
