Frances "Bud" Elliott

I never had the privilege of meeting this giant of a man but Clyde and Oma have repeatedly told me over the years that I would have loved him. From the stories I've been blessed to hear, I'm sure that's true. One consolation I have is that I shall meet him one day in heaven and happily introduce myself to him as the wife of his grandson Clyde. Perhaps he already knows who I am.

Bud & Darkie breaking up beans on the front porch of what is now Uncle Jr's & Aunt Shirleen's home in McDowell. They've lived there for a while and it's the heart of the Elliott Family Reunion each year.



Grandpa Bud & Uncle Jr. I'm not sure who the baby is. If anyone knows, leave the information in the comment section of this post or send it to my email address and I'll add the name.

This was the old home place of Bud & Darkie
