My name is Darlena K. Kidd Harmon. I am emailing you to let you kn
ow th at I used to be a next door neighbor of William "Willie" TYREE & h
is wif e, Ersel HACKNEY. They lived right next door to us. They moved the
re wh en my Mother was a young lady, in her Father & Mother's home. A
nd I was ra ised in the same home until I was 12 years old. I was bo
rn in 1958. Geneal ogy is my hobby or "obsession," so to speak. I knew a
ll of those people, e xcept for the son, William "Willie" TYREE, who di
ed before I was bor n. My Mother was sent up on the hill to the Old Commun
ity Mission Church ( out there) to tell Willie's children to come back do
wn to the house when t heir father, Mr. Willie Tyree was really bad off a
nd dying that Sunday nig ht.
William "Willie" TYREE was the eldest son of the children of Isaac R. T
YR EE & Gracie Pearl BASHAM. Gracie, I see from your information, was t
he ba by girl child of David Allen BASHAM and Minerva Jane COX.
I happened to find your Basham Family Genealogy on Ancestry world Tree P
ro ject while I was searching information for one of Willie & Ersel Tyree
's d aughter. And I wanted to share with you a little bit of what I knew a
nd st ill know of this family.
We all lived on the same road, Old Rt. 21, (Sissonville Road) in Charles
to n, Kanawha Co., WV, on what was then called way back then, Kanawha Two-
Mi le Creek or Slip Hill. Now the old road is called Falcon Drive. The z
ip co de for that area is 25312.
