Hope you're back on track after those stormy times.. love your music.

We are cousins.. My great grandma was Julia Ann Branscomb (1851-1949) born in AL, lived most of her life in Charleston, MS. You are, I think, Bennett Harvie's granddaughter, and he was a desc of Lewis Capers Branscomb, then Richard Edwin, than Bennett Hill Branscomb, b in 1803. Bennett HIll's brother George was my gg grandfather, and they both were sons of Zachariah Branscomb, the ancestor that you and I share.

Your rainbow over Woodsong Farm will soon shine again and all those stars will once again shine. The miracle is that you were not there, that great old home is still standing and the animals weathered the storm. Now that's something to rejoice and smile about. Your Cherry Log Friends
