Kate was a gracious lady and very interested in
the welfare of her family. She suffered a stroke
and was bed ridden several years. The webmaster found a newspaper index card which lists Kate as "Kaytre" in the announcement of their marriage. The wibmaster never heard this version of her name before.
Dr. Bill was from Hillsville, NC, and practiced medicine many
years in Whiteville and was known and respected by
everyone.
The Webmaster spent a few summers with Aunt
Kate and Uncle Bill as a pre-teen. Time was
filled with swimming lessons, fishing and numerous
projects. Also remembered are blackberry pies
made from berries that Billy [Jr.] and the Webmaster
picked and the rope swing located in a nearby wooded area.
Bill and Kate's children are a son, William A. Jr., and an
adopted daughter, Katherine. Katherine had
an early death under tragic circumstances.
Billy married Becky. Their children are daughters, Clark
and Alysia, and son, Brandon.
Any information about the members of this family
would be appreciated.
