Let’s see if this code works properly, here.

My Family Photos:



As I mentioned in the title, this is only to see if the ‘code’ works properly. If it does, then I have access to more family photos, through this post — if not…well, I try something different.

I am looking over older pages, on other sites to see what I need to do about giving access to older information — or possibly just migrating everything into the WordPress post/pages database.

Either way, this could become a major undertaking — and I have other things that need my attention — One of them being getting lunch started.

I will be back here, soon — yes, take that however you wish: promises, threat, or statement of fact. I am in the mood to write/type, but I have no idea what might get into print until I get at the keyboard (again).

Until next post,

NOTE: The above mentioned code doesn’t seem to work…I will try something else.

My website has become rather erratic in organization since I first started it. Slowly I work toward sort this confusion out.

These days my best description of the contents and topics inluded within it, is a “crazy quilt” — made up of many small or large pieces from previous ‘wholes’ that had been another web site. In some cases, the information included outdates anything I ever did on a computer. For these items, such as long-hand journal entries from high school, or poetry/prose from college days — I hope to give more attention to, later.

For now, I am in a reflective mood, and wanted to list some of family and genealogy items. Here are links to photos and/or pages on my site that you might enjoy visiting:

The Roundabout Plantation, NC

The Roundabout Plantation — Spruill family homeplace, NC

“Description :
The original Spruill grant included over a thousand acres of the south shore of Albemarle Sound and west side of Scuppernong River between Back Creek and Bunting Bay (now Bull’s Bay). In this beautiful, primitive setting, called Heart’s Delight by explorers a decade before, the Spruills set down their roots. Behind the high banks of the sound shore lay ridges cut here and there by quiet creeks and forested with virgin timber. On this location about 1705 was founded Roundabout Plantation, the seat of the Tyrrell Spruills for the next century. Unlike many of Scuppernong’s colonial land barons — the Pettigrews, Collinses and others who held land on the South Shore but whose interests lay elsewhere — the Spruills settled in Scuppernong and began the task of clearing and exploiting the rich dark land. Dr. Godfrey Spruill, probably one of Carolina’s first medical men, became well-known throughout the struggling Albemarle Colony, being called on numerous occasions across the sound to Queen Anne’s Creek, the site of present Edenton, to care for the sick. At his death the Roundabout fell to his son Samuel Spruill and then to his grandson Joseph Spruill…”
