    The books are ready if anyone is interested you can call the number provided by Sanibel. They are in red this time instead of green.They turned out very nice I think. About half of them are spoken for already.

    The book The Hills Of Home by Jennie Smith Dixon should be ready by the end of this month. I retyped the book and it has been proofread and being sent back to the printer the final approved copy this week. The original book was typed on an antique typewriter. I remember watching my grandmother sit at the typewriter for hours. As kids we helped her put together the very first volume. Jennie was my grandmother and there are some good stories in the book. She used to tell us great stories when we were little. We LOVED hearing her stories. I also have a copy of her second book she wrote. It starts when her parents are married and  is a very rough draft. It is going to take some time to put it together. She had typed it up and went through making her changes throughout the book and that was as far as it got. It starts in the very early 1900's. It describes my great grandmother's wedding gown, at the beginning, which I have seen in a trunk and I believe still exists with a relative. It was a beautiful gown for the early 1900's. I have yet to read the entire book so I am not sure what the content is. The information Sanibel provided is correct above. Jennie was Calvin's mother.

    My great grandmother was a Duttry and great grandfather descended from the Bundys. (Both born 1870-1880.) Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Hills of Home by Jennie Dixon? I've heard about it from several sources and would love to read it. Can't find it available online anywhere.
