52 Ancestors Week 9-There's No Place Like Home

  There is something wonderful about walking where your ancestor's walked and imagining the stories that played out in their homes.
 The following pictures of where some of my ancestors lived during their life's journey are the subject of my contribution to Week 9 of the  52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks 2105 Challenge.

       From the mid 1900's to the late 1940's, this land was the home of the Daughrity family. The home burned and the land was donated to the City of Sumter and is now used as a park.

  Built by my Grandparents in the mid 1950's this was "home" for most of my life. Mom and I came home from the hospital when I was born to this house while we waited for Dad to finish Basic Training in the USAF. The year Dad spent in Viet Nam was made bearable by living in this home. Memories of vacations, holidays and birthdays were created in this special place.
 My Grandparents are now gone and the house belongs to someone else. When I visit Camden, I still drive by, take a look and remember. There's no place like home.

Are we kin? Please contact me. Together we can find our people.
