Narrative

Hi, Linda -- I just saw your Oct. 12 post on the Barber & Kinfolk website about Serena Hines' grandparents. I'm not posting this on the website because there's a member there who disagrees with the Hines lineage, even though the Pulaski County records contradict his information, and he's very sensitive about it.

Anyway, I have William Hines and Barbara Baugh as Serena's paternal grandparents, and Henry Vaught, Sr. and Esther Baugh as her maternal grandparents. I have more on this line but it will take a while to pull it together. If you're interested, please let me know and I'll get started on it. By the way, are you descended from Serena and Punkin' Jim? I'm descended from them through their son Albert C. Wesley (m. Lucinda Saddler), and through their son John Lincoln Wesley, Sr.
