I give-as proofs, our destructive riots, increase ‘in crime, broken homes, alcoholics, dope addicts, morality that has dropped below that of a dumb ‘animal, literature and movies ‘dirtier than a-cesspool, dishon- esty in government, and practi-. cally all professions.

These are the students who would become quite dis- couraged -trying to keep pace with Beta Club members. Both groups and all. between need your help. North School has about 40 Beta Club Members and I never spoke to a more attentative or | well behaved group. I tried to tell them about character which is one of the three goals of their club. The three goals are schol- oe. lepdership and charac- tant mind, quick to grasp and | understand :things. The second, | leadship, is the ability to get people, to).do what yx want.

Their proposals include premarital test flights’ World Shrinking This is for men only. Let’s face it, fellows. "Things haven’t ' | been going too well for us lately. First, there was-this kooky court de- cision in London that a man has no right . to blow his stack when his wife does a | little backseat driving—like telling him maybe that he should stay off the road. This judge, you recall, ruled that a wife is entitled to a divorce on the grounds of marital cruelty if her husband _ indicates her kindly suggestions are get- ~ ting under his skin: (In this particular case all the poor "guy did was run a red light and crash into a truck, just to show her’ he did too _ know what he was doing.

And now a study financed by the U.S. government has concluded that the way to whip the drinking problem may be to Start kids drinking young and teach them how to hold their, liquor better than some of their parents do. ' This’ proposal has been endorsed by 4 . the National Council of Churches — an important ally, since one of the pe tions of the Cooperative Commission on the Study of Alcoholism is that liquor be served to young people at church func- ‘tions. "The thinking is that youngsters are drinking anyway, and that they might drink less and hetter if they could .do it openly and within the family circle. This . would at least do away with hypocrisy, hidden guilt and the lure of forbidden — fruit. Maybe so. It will be interesting to find out. But you have to suspect ‘that quite a few grandmas and grandpas, and perhaps even some parenits, will be shak- ing their heads at the new turn ay togetherness is: : Little did they dream they would see _ the, day when the family, kids and a “would gather around the fiteside a bottle of booze.

It may have been from either. the Bishop or my great grandfather, Daniel Asbury. I never heard my father mention that his grandfather preached -in Alexander and Ire- dell, but he may have done so as he was Superintendent of a large number of churches. Marry Asbury's notes on this sme: "In the: year of 1786, Daniel Asbury entered the Ministry of the Methodist Church, and was assigned a circuit.in Catawaba (It is a léng, day “Since I had seen that spelling of Catawba), County, North Carolina where he traveled and organized other churches in. the state of North Carolina... a \ i Daniel Asbury was the Presiding Elder of the Savannah, Catawaba and Broad River Districts, for 20 years.”. I used the present) day fbtle .for his office as it has not been so-many years that it was changed from Presiding Elder to Superintendent. .There is a Baptist Church in. gomey County that has the name of Asbury. ‘I have not yet found how it got the name, though Asburys are in all denominations now-a-days. oes eee : f : _ Thomas Asbury migrated to Kentucky in early 1800s andidied there in either 18060r 7 and is buried in Mercer‘County. ‘His wife survived him and went to Georgi@ to live with their youngest son, There were other sons living in Kentucky, and it may be that some of Jacobs family knew them. _ Now the initials F.

It may be that my Mother -- I started to say ¢ power of Attorney to sell land, but I note his sale was 1871, the yeer of their marriage. I looked to see if Francis Asbury, oldest son of Daniel Asbury, had any children with those initials, but did not find it so.: The abdve explanation must cover. the deeds, as Dad may have owned land there. .

I mentioned in my last letters. . These may be the same adyou have but Jo Della is a -@escendakt of Daniel Boone Frost's sister Hannah who married Davide Martin. Jo Della has been working on Boone-Frost etc. records since 1922 and assisted Mrs. Spraker in her book on the Boone Family by . doing research work for her. oo It seems very unusual that the family of great-uncle George T. Frost of Scio, Oregon, did not know anything of the second family if theg went to dregon with him. Of course, the one I have contacted is the youngest member of the family, but the historian.of the family who died some years ago, did not have record of the second family in - the data that he left with his wife. The wife attempted to complete the research that he had started, but she was. taken away this summer, go we do not know which one of the nieces and ‘nephews got the records. -Z had some correspondence with her and got the family list from her o: several months before her death. They did know of Daniel Boone Frost‘third family which was only one daughter, Margaret, and & member of the Samantha Frost Kirk family aid that Margaret married a Mr. McCoy. I have not been able to- contact her descendants for no - one knew where they had settled but it mst have been in California. I had a letter from my cousin, Mrs. Louis Woodward, last week and she is still very uneasy about her father. Had not been able to get sufficient help in the nursing line and was doing the night work her- » self. Said her father had been resting very well at night“so she got gome ‘Pest in that way, but I imagine it was very little for when one gets age of her father a constant watch has to be kept during i11- - pess, She said research had just to be left alone, | / & ar Virginia records has a William Swann, and I have been wondering if oub line is connected with him. According to our records great-grand- father William Swann was the son: df Thomas. Swann and Catherine Mc Gonneghey, or some such name- I could not make out the correct /spelling of the name, I shall be glad to have any information on the Swann- family and even if Samuel Swann branch is not connected it is good. to have recor of it. ee | , : I have not been in touch with Elree’ Webster but I have what they — know about the family from his sister, Ricka Webster, who lives in Solumbia, 5. C. She is enjoying retirement now and still ‘lives in Columbia where she worked for years, but says that eventually she will | -peturn to Statesville. The;were left without a mother in,early life _am@ housekeepers were not so careful with things so they have no re- cords of any dates. Uncle Webster,as we called him, had to be away . from home making a living and that left the children with houseseepers. Ricka said my mother's records on the family was all news to her. . That reminds me, I wrote the descendants of Rose Woodward Call’. early last year and not until about two weeks ago did I get an answer, At the time I wrote her son wassalive, but died shortly. after he got my letter, and his son just put off answering until this year, The gon was a dentist in Waco, Texas and his son is following his footsteps. & + ? I visited Aunt Rose when I was working in Texas during 1913-1915 and _ had a delightful time with her and family on their ranch near Corsicana,. It. was the first time I'd ever seen a. disternfor-<drinking water and at the time I was there they hauled water from the river for —_ uses, : ‘Many happyyreturns to you for your birthday.

Today is the 89th birthday of my oldes& brother who lives at College Station, Texas, and from now on he will be telling Bhat he is in his nintieth year as that is the way he talks of his ALO. Do you ever get confused in the genealogy work?. Jo Della had this’ _+—to say: "As to the time - I know of nothing that takes more time or _ 80 “Befuddies" one." That is somewhat as I have found it. I have so ‘Much data and to get it compiled in the most"readable" list is going to take time, I hope it can be understood. - I think I told you of the Frost Bible that has been found with the record that had "His mother was Hannah Frost and that her parents were “Gapt.

Hannah Foost's son wrote in his family Bible that his mother was Hannah Frost and | that her parents were “Capt. John Frost and R. Boone who was a | gousin of the famous Daniel Boone,” Ina earlier letter she written that her mother always spoke of Daniel Boone as . \y "Uncle Daniel” and as. this corresponded with what our western XN eousirs had been to14 I had written her about: what each had es 4 ‘written. The finding of this Bible retoni verifies what: Mrs, PAN Spraker had on record and Mr. Wright Frost's record also, ko { If you do not have these extracts of Joc Della's letters I have an extra copy and will be glad to sen@-it to you, Very interesting lot of information. a . 7 G f. ; * — ihe I thave-not heard from Mary Virginia Woodward since - : early July and then she wrote that she was expecting her daughter ‘to. be home and ee would be suspended during that time, She and I are co-workers on the Woodward line so I have ‘been sending data as-I get it, and I guess she will acknowledge all when she is free to take up the work again. i One thing that has pleased me very mich is that Jo Della had the names of the: seonnd famiby of children of Daniel Boone Frost. They were listed in Census of 1850 state of Missouri. _ There the record stops. We do not know whether or not they went: _ to Oregon with him in 1852, We were in hopes that one of our Oregon cousins-in-law, who was interested in finishing the. family Gata that her husband had left, would help us by searching the Census of Oregon, but she was suffering from cancer. and was taken away in June, That leaves us without this data as the other cousins are not interested in the work. <a ». eC I have written a number of.Pooles but have not been. lucky to hit the descendants of my great aunt Jane Evaline.Wood- Poole.
