Let me know what format you would like James' ancestry information in and I'll email it to you.
The home you are referring to might be the home built by Benjamin Gachet in 1820. It was passed down through generations after the death of Benjamin. This web site has a photo and some information on it.

I'd love it if you forwarded pics if you do drive there. I'm in Washington State...probably won't be able to do that any time soon! Let me know on the file type you'd like...

yes you are right, it is Benjamin's house. I meet a gentleman on line who drives by it everyday to work and gave me a little history on it. When the weather warms up and everybody gets over this flu bug, we are going a day trip to check it out. As to what format, send as an attachment that can be opened by mircosoft works or wordpad, 98 or 2000. Or if on file in your computer, copy and paste to email text, this seems to work best. If not, snail mail is 165 Imogene Street, Prattville, AL 36067. Email address is: Jbkamadx@aol.com

thanks

I have a handwritten penny-postage postcard (sent to my father) postmarked November 21, 1938. It was mailed in Montgomery, AL. It reads:

"Gentleman: Please advise price of wood saw with T model engine. Would you trade for hogs.

P.S. I could be persuaded to give you this card as a Christmas present. (He had no children, right?)

There was a child also b abt 1919 named Murray. Believe him to be a Ralph Murray Fike who d abt 1920. Apparently Marcelia died or divorced as Tom E Fike remarried to a Nell (Belser)? and had Nell age 5 in 1930. Believe the Thomas Earl Fike Jr went to live with kin. He is on the 1930 Census with James E Gachet and wife Ethelyn (?)as "Earl Fike" nephew age 12 b in AL and parents b KY. James is 40 and wife is 32.

Thomas Earl Fike b 8 Jan 1896 is son of Thomas M Fike and Kate F (O'Conner) Fike. Kate Fike is the dau of Mary Conniff who m Peter H O'Conner in Montgomery 20 Feb 1870. Mary Conniff is the dau of Frances Flynn Conniff who married Patrick Conniff. Frances Flynn is dau of Margaret Bibby Flynn. Finally (whew)! Margaret Bibby is the dau of Nathaniel Bibby and Elizabeth of Lancaster Co SC. Margaret Bibby married in SC 6 April 1819 to Patrick William Flynn b in Ireland.
Hope all this helps Eleanor Greene Hemmes in Dallas TX who is a Bibby descendant twice over !
