"My family line comes thru Jesse Martin Greear, his grandson Emit Walker Greear to my grandmother Tempy Louise Greear. I had the privildege of visiting with my great aunt Maude Kern (the only living relative in her generation, she's 87) and she gave me a photo of the old Isaac Winfield Flanary homeplace in Scott County, VA. It is my understanding that they are naming the old family cemetery near Wood after him. He gave the home to his daughter Safronia and her husband Emit Walker Greear. Aunt Maude lived there as a young girl." (Louise Lawson, 4550 E. Charlton, Hernet, California 92544, 909-927-4922, litbou@msn.com>. Information about this line was provided by Louise Lawson.)
