William Perry Lunsford--Father of Reba Jean Lunsford Phelps---Husband of Hattie Belle Morton Lunsford--Son of Walter Thomas Lunsford--Grandson of Civil War soldier Payton L. Lunsford. "Perry" as most people knew him by or "Four Points" after the store he ran for many years,was born and raised in Caswell Co.,N.C. He married my grandmother Hattie Belle Morton and had 6 children--Edward Harold,Reba Jean,Patricia Ann,Malinda Jane,Dennis Morton & Malcom Perry(died as an infant 1928). One thing My Grandfather loved to do was "Go Hunting". I can remember as a child sitting in the back of a pickup truck in the dark and listening to a pack of dogs "hot on the trail" of a Fox or Coon and my grandfather would "holler out"--"there's Old Smoky Joe" as he could pick out his dogs from the pack just from the sound of their barks.He also loved Deer hunting as you can see from the picture.He was a staunch member of the local hunting club for many years.In his Later years he was absolutely crazy about "Professional Wrestling" on TV. He would sit on the edge of his chair and holler and swing his arms as if he were in the ring with them. No need to try to talk to him when a Wrestling Match was on. |
