My paternal grandmother was Ocie Lilly Foard. She was Uncle Henry's sister. I only met him a few times over the years but he was a precious man. Do you know if his wife, Phoebe is still living?

Ocie was my paternal great aunt. Great Aunt Phoebe has passed on. Below is a link to her Find A Grave Memorial page:

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Fo...;

There is a link on her page to Great Uncle Henry & their daughter Alyce Reiss.

I was unaware I had any living uncles on my Dad's side of the fam until my Daddy's death in 94. After I connected with Uncle Henry & Aunt Phoebe I visited them a multiple of times while I lived in Charlotte and every trip when I returned to visit the area after moving. I still keep in touch with their other daughter, Jeanne. I still miss them a bunch. We were too young to remember the other fam. I do remember visiting Great Aunt Queen (& her husband Carl) and Great Aunt Ida. And Banks Foard (son of one of Henry's brothers) would visit us while we were growing up.

Henry & Ocie's sister was Jennie Mae Foard Hucks. She is my paternal grandmother. My daddy is Billy J. Hucks.

Would love to share genealogy info. I'm cousin we are connected as a cousin thru this branch.

How fun! Ocie was my Dad's mom, married to Arthur Marshall Rhodes. I'm Glenn Garrison Rhodes' youngest daughter. He was married to my mom, Florence Hilton Erwin Rhodes, and they had Glenn Garrison Rhodes, Jr., William Edward Rhodes, Florence Jeane Rhodes Clower, David Arthur Rhodes, Janet Susan Rhodes Penny and me, Patricia Joanne Rhodes. I'm just getting started with this family tree stuff but I'm ever so interested in finding out what I can of my ancestry. Being the youngest I think I got the least of the information available of our family. Would love any and all input you have to share. I currently live in Fort Mill, SC. Thank you so much for answering my inquiry!

Well hello cousin! ;o) If I'm reading this Genealogy Relationship Chart correctly we are considered second cousins. Your Daddy & my Daddy were first cousins. I have an older brother, William Harrison Hucks and a younger brother, Roger Dale Hucks. We are considered younger than the majority of my paternal cousins and missed a lot of great info meeting the older generation who had mostly passed on by the time we rolled around. :o( I have been dabbling in and out of genealogy for 15+ yrs. I love genealogy. The hunt is the fun part. Would love to share what info I have with our line. Looking forward to hearing more from you. Take care!
