You're looking at mountain medicine for cancer treatment. The very short shelf may be the result of enyme oxidation that could be addressed genetically. We already know how.Paw paws now in season if you can find them. Very short shelf life unfortunately.
Yeah, thats the man.Robert Pendleton Steenbergen
<===
My wife's Ritter side of the family are from Frederick. They settled just north of the Green River.
Welcome to the family. My folks are all over the 6th KY CSA.I've posted in this thread before about civil war ancestry. And today I found out I am a descendant of a Civil war Confederate. (And possibly many more). William McGary Steenbergen enlisted in the 6th KY CSA CO. E. Part of the famous orphan brigade. His Father or grandfather was a language interrupter for George Washington during the American revolution.
''
When his regiment (6th Kentucky Infantry, Co. E) went into battle for the first time at Shiloh, Tennessee, William was among those wounded and left on the field for dead. Shot through the the body, he was removed to a field hospital where he lay for ten days before being sent as a prisoner to Evansville, Indiana. The doctors offered no hope for his recovery and his wound was pronounced "mortal", but to their surprise, after three months he was well enough to be moved to Camp Morton Prison.
In September of 1862, William Steenbergen was paroled and returned to his regiment although his wounds had left him unfit for field duty. Due to his poor physical condition, he was detailed as a surgeon's orderly for the next months. He was appointed Corporal in the spring of 1863.
After returning to active duty, William was again wounded, this time at the battle of Dallas, Georgia. His arm was badly hurt, making it impossible for him to load a weapon, but in spite of this injury, Cpl. Steenbergen returned to his company in time to take part in the battle of Jonesboro. He was said to have fired his rifle as fast as Lts. Terry and Holman were able to load it for him. At one point, when a loaded shell landed in the rifle pit beside him, Steenbergen tossed it out of the pit before it could explode, saving his own life and the lives of the men around him.''
I haven't found any blue boys yet. I believe a relative may have rode with John Hunt Morgan's 2nd Dukes Cavalry. Need confirmation on it though.
Bull shit.Ha,
My folks come over on the Mayflower........................... in chains.......
Yeah, okay.... take a look...
Those are my Uncles and my Grandpa... (My Dad is the one in the upper left.) (This was five years before I was born.) I only remember meeting one uncle (In the middle Uncle Fred died when I was about 23 or so.) as all the others were killed or died prematurely. These boys were close to criminals if they weren't already. (My Dad was a seventh son.) (I do remember stories my brother and older cousins told me.) (Each one of those brothers had two boys and a girl.) (They had one sister. My Aunt Juanita had two boys and a girl as well. Amazing...)
Looking at my Grandpa I imagine his Dad and brothers were a bunch to deal with. (All lived mostly in Middlesboro)
That's interesting stuff Bert. I don't know how specific your knowledge is of your wife's family in their Frederick days. But I can tell you my ancestors owned property along the Monocacy River just a few miles south of Frederick in the mid-to-late 18th century.
You need to study Kentucky history.
Yeah, we never seceded because we felt like the war was about preserving the union not ending slavery.
I don't know specifically where they lived or what they owned, just that they moved to Kentucky from Fredrick, MD.
One of my ancestors was a prominent figure in the War of 1812. I share his name.
This makes me think if I have some confederate family in VA, or in the deep south states.
Once you start digging in your family history you will find all kinds of things. Mine started from an entry in a family Bible. In the Bible was a genealogy that went back several generations and by one name it had in parenthesis (served in the war). He was born in 1842 so it was evident what war. Since he was Southern I went to the Florida State Archives and searched his name. And went from there. I discovered he was in the Florida 5th Infantry. I found out all of his brothers served as did his 56 year old father. From there I find all of the male cousins and the list just kept growing.
Yeah. Just gotta find the last names related to you.
That right. There are pretty good records of the Soldiers who fought in the American Revolution and WBTS. I went to the State Archives and took about a week digging through records and making copies of records. There was a lot of information on Pension Records that was pure gold in my research. Plus records and books on the Regiments and Units. It was fun, especially if you are doing research with a friend or family member. It cuts down on the time.
Speaking of pizza. There has to be a point of diminishing returns right?Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and clear with periodic clouds. Today's high expected around 97°F.
Local talk radio described a recent crime spree hitting Austin yesterday. Couple guys will stalk someone withdrawing money from back teller and rob them. Happened again yesterday. Lady called in and reported another hit about an hour after crime occurred. Folks are losing $2-4,000 or so at a time.
Co-worker totaled her SUV over the weekend. She's shaken up, but okay.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Stay away from the Ex-Lax brownie recipe.
I like that it comes with its own shotglass.
A very difficult record for me was validation of my paternal ggf. The family bible was found in a museum.That right. There are pretty good records of the Soldiers who fought in the American Revolution and WBTS. I went to the State Archives and took about a week digging through records and making copies of records. There was a lot of information on Pension Records that was pure gold in my research. Plus records and books on the Regiments and Units. It was fun, especially if you are doing research with a friend or family member. It cuts down on the time.
A good thing for me was the records kept by my family, especially my mother and her family. They were pretty educated in comparison to my dad's side. They kept letters, manuscripts, etc. His side wrote it in a Bible but there was only one Bible. So you had to find out who had the Bible.
