3	From a photo given by Fannie Tharp, we have Zora's wedding day documented in a photo. This photo is taken in front of the home of Jim and Fannie Smith, the Aunt & Uncle who raised Zora and her brother Tom. Zora is standing to the left and front of the photo, with her bridesmaids, Fannie Tharp and an unidentified friend or relative. In this same picture, standing behind the bride is an unidentified couple, but is speculated to be Tom Hager, Zora's brother, and his wife or a lady friend. Seated on the porch is Mother Berry, the grandmother who first raised Tom and Zora, when they were orphaned in Wills Point. Standing on the pathway and in front of the gate to the house, is a couple believed to be the owner's of the house, Jim and Fannie Smith, Zora's Aunt and Uncle. The people on the other side of the yard are the Groom's family. John A Tharp and his wife, Emily, stand toward the back, John is holding an umbrella as though it were a cane. The young boy is unidentified, but is possibly a nephew to the Groom. Simeon Stanley Allen Tharp, the Groom stands next to a woman, thought to be Ella Tharp Deaton, his older sister. It is believed they were married sometime in the year 1903 as they gave birth to their first child in 1904. In 1903 Zora would have been 20 years old, and Simeon would have been 18.	Family: F0004

8	Jeptha is described as 5'6", fair, with black hair and eyes, and was a farmer. He enlisted 19 June 1836 as a private, 18 miles below Ft. Mitchell, Alabama to serve in the Florida Indian War. He was in the Alabama Mounted Volunteers under Captain Musgrove and was discharged 20 July 1836. He received BLT #91677 and BLT # 33.858 for 120 acres and sold #91677 about 1853. Jeptha and Sally lived in Blount County for a time after their marriage as Jep was paid $4 for being a witness in court there in March of 1839. By 1843, they lived in DeKalb (now Etowah)County near Duck Springs in Big Wills Valley. He acquired 80.5 acres of land under the Military Act of 1850 on 22 April 1843 (W2NE4A18-10S7E DeKalb co Tract Bk). He was a blacksmith (mechanic) and carpenter. The census lists them as illiterate, but Sarah signed her name to an affidavit regarding her I.W. pension. The signature was questioned because the signature was very shaky. She explained it was caused by her age of 80 years. Witnesses to the application for a widow's pension were W. D. Bright who stated he had known Sarah for 15 years, and that she was a resident of Three Rivers. S. W. Kelly stated that he had known her for 30 years. Levi Scott Owen said he saw Jeptha after his death, and dressed his corpse. The Federal Census of 1880, Visalia, Tulare, California, lists Jeptha Berry, farmer, age 66, born in Tennessee, father and mother born in Va, married, white.

20	Benjamin and Elizabeth (Fletcher) Allenthorpe Benjamin Allenthorpe was born in Stafford County, Virginia, about 1726. Benjamin married Elizabeth Fletcher on August 19, 1746 in Stafford County, Virginia at the Aquia Church. To this union seven known children were born: 1. Vincent 2. John 3. William 4. Chrnick 5. Presley 6. Berallin 7. Sarah (who was listed on the lease of 1748. Why she was listed there is not known) After his marriage, Benjamin Allenthorpe moved to King George County, Virginia. It is known at this time, of their lives, that the young couple had little of the world's goods so they leased a tract of land in pioneer country. Benjamin was literate for he signed his name as a witness to his father's will and he signed his name to this lease. As important as reading and writing are to an individual, they are of little help in making a living in a new territory. The lease was made for three years, from December 20, 1748 to December 20, 1751. It seems that William Newton was making excessive demands to expect in that time to have Benjamin to erect a small dwelling house, a barn, a corn house and to have planted one hundred apple trees, one hundred peach trees, twenty-five cherry trees, to be enclosed by a fence, plus a yearly rent of five hundred thirty pounds of tobacco, and two shillings and six pence. How would a young man, even though he was young and strong, be able to complete the buildings, plant the fruit trees, cultivate tobacco in three years. In addition he had to have a garden and livestock to feed the growing family. Having no slaves to help him, no doubt his brothers, Jacob and John, helped him as well as some of his many Sebastin cousins. As stringent as the terms of this lease were, the form must have been customary for William Newton made another recorded lease with the same terms. One can but admire and respect this remarkable young man and his wife who undertook such a formidable task. They were industrious, thrifty and good managers to accomplish this work. It is a privilege to have such strong sturdy dependable people for our ancestors. When Benjamin signed the lease, he signed as Benjm Allentharp. This is the beginning of th euse of "a" in the name instead of the "o". For many years thereafter the anme was written Allentharp. It is to be noted that Benjamin Allenthorpe along with sons John, William, Charnick, Presley, and Berallin fought for the Tories (British) in the American Revolution. It's not known why son Vincent chose the American side. The name of Benjamin Allenthorpe was on the early list of Tories. No records are found in South Carolina to tell what became of Benjamin Allenthorpe but a record has been found in England that tells that he died sometime between April 24, 1781 and April 19, 1782. A copy of this list has been placed in the library of Congress. "Tories Murdered in the South Carolina Up Country in the Revolution" says, "In giving the above list of Persons massacred in this Province we have confined us to the 96 Dist., the Southern part of Camden and upper part of Orangeburg with five in Charleston and from every account we can safely say that at least thrice the number have been Butchered and Hanged in the like manner - not one of these named fell in action but were killed at their Plantations or after they had been made Prisoners - we would particularize the circumstances but think it an unnecessary intrusion upon your time.

30	Southern Campaign American Revolution Pension Statements Pension application of Solomon Barnes S6569 Transcribed by Will Graves State of Mississippi, Madison County On this 28th day of January 1833 personally appeared in open Court before Nicholas Callahan Judge of the Orphan & Probate Court of the County aforesaid now sitting Solomon Barnes a resident of the County & State aforesaid aged seventy years now passed his nearest neighbors are Zachariah Ratliff David Hailey John Austin & John Cole, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth on his Oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the Act of Congress passed June 7th, 1832. That he entered the service of the United States when he was very young, being only 17 years of age. He therefore cannot recollect with precision many things which have transpired that might be important here to be declared. Besides though only 70 years of age he is much broken in Constitution and enfeebled in memory and the energies of mine he once had yet he will herein declared the facts that have made a lasting impression on his mind and will offer the affidavit of the Reverend Henry H. Hill a resident of said County and the affidavit of David M. Fulton who is now a citizen of this County and from his boyhood was a near neighbor to him Solomon Barnes in Sumner County State of Tennessee and he will be able to procure the affidavits of Colonel Samuel Gwin & Col. Anthony Shelby of Hinds County of this State who were also his neighbors in Sumner County Tennessee ? to sustain the true [sic, truth] of some facts in the Declaration & their entire confidence in the veracity of said Solomon Barnes. That he was born in the County of Bartee [sic, Bertie?] State of North Carolina some time in the month of December A. D. 1762. The record of which (which is in his father's family Bible) he has not seen for many years and where it is now is he has no idea it having fell into the possession of some of other members of the family. That he lived in that County & State until some time in the month of December 1799 at which time he left & removed to the County of Sumner & State of Tennessee where he constantly resided until November 1831 at which time he removed to this County where he has lived ever since. He further declares that he entered the service of the United States in May or early June 1780 under the command & in the Company of Captain Francis Pugh in the County of Bertie State of North Carolina, as a volunteer to serve for the term of nine months which service he performed for he did not leave the Army until late in March 1781. Shortly after joining the service he marched in Captain Francis Pugh's company with Charles Barber his lieutenant in the second Regiment under the command of Colonel John P. Williams through North Carolina into the State of South Carolina a little while after getting into that state they became scarce of provisions and were compelled to tarry some time at one Douglin's or Jooselin's Mill waiting for supplies, after the receipt of which they marched under the Command of General Gates towards the enemy during which time the Army was joined by a great number of light horse men which were the only regulars except some Continentals under Colonel Howard that he recollects of and indeed he is not certain they were. He thinks however they were called two years man. He don't recollect who they were commanded by. The Army and he with them met the British at Camden South Carolina about the middle of August and had with them a very severe Battle on the 14th, 15th, 16th or 17th of the same month 1780 which contest terminated in our defeat. Our Army retreated ? we crossed the Pedee River at what was then called the White House and halted & remained some time at the hanging Rock. From this we proceeded to Salisbury North Carolina & thence to Hillsborough where we received the [illegible word, looks like ?squandering?] Army & some reinforcement. He then went to Charlotte where we remained until late in December or early in January at this place some time about the last of November or first of December General Green [sic, Nathanael Greene] took command of the Army. On leaving this place the Army was divided. We went to Cheraw Hills where we remained until it was understood that the other detachment had fought & gained a Victory at the Cowpens. Shortly after this battle & news we joined with our friends the Victors & went into the State of Virginia, where we were joined with a reinforcement. We then returned to North Carolina and about the middle of March 1781 we arrived & stationed ourselves at Guilford Court house, at which place a few days after our arrival we had a desperate fight with the enemy, but were compelled to retreat after a severe struggle. The Affiant was not in this engagement he was a short distance off stationed to guard the wagons & baggage. The Army did not retreat far shortly after this battle we were marched to Orange County at which place this Affiant received his discharge from Captain Pugh and returned home. His discharge he supposes he must have lost he has not seen it since these times nor did he ever think it would be of any use to him & therefore did may not have taken the care of it that he should have done. He cannot now recollect any of the officers but those already mentioned.

31	JOHN FRANKLIN BAUGH died in San Antonio on the 5th of March 2007, at age 91, surrounded by his loving family. He was born near Waco on the 29th of February 1916, son of John and Nell Elizabeth Turner Baugh. As a child John learned and believed the teachings of Jesus Christ and these were reflected through his entire life. Following graduation from Waco High School, John enrolled in Baylor University while he worked at the local A & P Grocery to help the family income during the Depression. Due to the economic hard times he had to move to Houston to continue working at A & P. There he met his life-long sweetheart, Eula Mae Tharp, in night school at the University of Houston. They married in 1936 and became parents of Barbara Nell in 1942. As the war came to an end, John decided to try to open his own food business which became Zero Foods Company. This business flourished, having a branch in San Antonio and servicing most of South Texas. John became active in industry organizations and met other food distributors from across the country in the National Frozen Food Association where he served as a director and president. John proposed an idea to create a nation-wide food service company by having a simultaneous merger of nine privately owned companies. Wall Street said this had never been done before but these nine pioneers of the food industry agreed unanimously to accept the ownership structure recommended by John, affirming their respect for his fairness and integrity. Thus Sysco Corporation was founded on the same day that it became a public company in 1970. From that time to 2005, sales grew from $115 million to over $30 billion and Sysco grew through acquisition from nine to 78 wholly-owned operating companies with 170 locations and over 47,500 employees and is the largest food services company in North America. John served as Chairman, CEO and Senior Chairman of Sysco in addition to being the Founder. In addition to the offices held in the National Frozen Food Association, he was the recipient of the Heritage Award in 1976 and was the first person elected to the NFFA Hall of Fame. He received the Herbert Hoover Award from the National Wholesale Grocers Association in 1988 and was inducted into the Texas Business Hall of Fame in 1991. He was a director of the Bank of Houston and had other business and ranching interests. Even more important to John than his business interests were his family, friends and Christian endeavors. He and Eula Mae supported their church, Baylor University, Baptist General Convention of Texas, Houston Baptist University, Memorial Hospital Foundation, Baptist Child and Family Services, Central Baptist Seminary, Baptist Joint Committee, Baptist University of the Americas, Texas Baptists Committed, University of Mary Hardin Baylor, Baylor Alumni Association and many other Christian and educational causes. They, along with Paul and Katie Piper, provided the initial funding for the George W. Truett Theological Seminary. That campus and the Center for Entrepreneurship at Baylor's Hankamer School of Business bear his name. John served as a Trustee, Regent and Regent Emeritus of Baylor University and has received several awards from Baylor including the Abner V. McCall Religious Liberty Award, the W. R. White Meritorious Service Award, the Herbert H. Reynolds Award, the Founders Medal and the George W. Truett Churchman Award. He was also named Alumnus Honaris Causa by Baylor. John was a founding trustee of Houston Baptist University, a director of the Baptist Foundation of Texas for more than 25 years and was a founding member of Lakeside Country Club. John has authored two books entitled The Battle for Baptist Integrity and The Sysco Story...Thus Far. Writer Tom Kennedy has written a book about John and Eula Mae Baugh entitled From Waco to Wall Street. John Baugh had a great love for land and open spaces. Some of his and Eula Mae's happiest times were spent at their ranch near San Marcos entertaining friends and family. The sign at the front gate reads, "To leave the land better than we found it creates opportunities for those who follow and honors our heritage." "Papo", as he is lovingly called by his family, always wanted to be with his family. His great sense of humor and contagious laugh drew others to him easily. The children loved to talk with him and listen to his words of wisdom that made them feel so special. His kindness and humility were extended through his generosity of both time and resources. His friends and family members always knew that he had time to devote to them. John was passionate about the freedoms expressed through traditional Baptist values religious freedom for our country, the right of every believer to communicate with his God, the autonomy of the local church, and the responsibilities that accompany these freedoms. John Baugh is survived by his beloved wife of 71 years, Eula Mae; his daughter, Barbara "Babs" Baugh and her husband, John Jarrett; granddaughters, Jackie Moore and her husband Kim Moore, and Julie Ortiz and her husband, Carlos Ortiz; great grandchildren, John Sterling Moore, Katherine Elizabeth Moore, Jacob Taylor Moore, John-Carlos Breck Ortiz, and Alexa Mae Ortiz. He is also survived by scores of friends whom he loved. He will be tremendously missed and always remembered. Friends are cordially invited to a visitation with the family from half-past two o'clock until half-past five o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesday, the 7th of March 2007, in the Library of Geo. H. Lewis & Sons, 1010 Bering Drive in Houston. A funeral service will be conducted at one o'clock in the afternoon on Thursday, the 8th of March 2007, at Tallowood Baptist Church, 555 Tallowood Road in Houston, with Dr. Duane Brooks, Dr. Daniel Vestal, Dr. Herbert Reynolds, and Dr. Phil Lineberger officiating.

47	Mr Carmichael has earned the affectionate cognomen of "Mr. Low Speed Aerodynamics," having made low Reynolds Number fluid flows the object of his life's work. An aviation enthusiast since 1928, he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Michigan in 1944, studying under Prof. Edgar Lesher. He worked for Chance Vought and Goodyear Aircraft as an Applied Aerodynamic Engineer. Later he joined the late Dr. August Raspet's team at Mississippi State College conducting flight research on boundary layer control, continuing that work under Dr. Werner Pfenninger at Northrop. Before retiring from North American Rockwell, he worked on low drag underwater vehicles with Dr. Max Kramer. His 43-year career has been split between analytical and experimental work in both hydro- and aerodynamics. It included test programs in low-turbulence wind tunnels, in flight, in water tunnels, water basins, deep lakes and the ocean. The emphasis throughout was on laminar flow, both natural and suction-stabilized, and on the aerodynamics of the critical Reynolds Number regime. Bruce Carmichael has lectured at Cal Tech, USC and MIT. He has been featured speaker at National Soaring Conventions, Experimental Aircraft Association conventions and Sailplane Homebuilders Association workshops. His work has been published in the IAS Journal, various NASA Contractor Reports, Northrop and Rockwell reports, Soaring, Technical Soaring, O.S.T.I.V publications, Sailplane Builder, National Free Flight Symposium journals, Sport Aviation, Kitplanes, Contact magazine and the French magazine Experimental. He describes himself as a "ham-handed model airplane builder and sailplane pilot."	CARMICHAEL Bruce H
