tom baxley was my grandfather, my father was nicky baxley. they farmed in and around leachville arkansas. would love any info someone might have.

my father name tom from arkansas

Tom Baxley was my uncle. He was married to my mother's sister Helen Knight. She was mother to Nicky,Bobby and Danny. I knew Uncle Tom Baxley when I was a little girl in the 1940's. I remember him as a kind person who took time to talk to us children. I was several years older then Nicky but I remember playing with him. My grandmother lived behind Uncle Tom and Aunt Helen's home which was a huge log home that later burned. I still correspond with my Aunt. My name is Nola (King) langley and I live in Florida

Cindi, your father Nicky and I were first cousins so you and I are considered first cousins once removed. My children and your children would be second cousins. Uncle Tom always drove a new truck and had a big dog I think was names Dixie. As Uncle Tom would drive off in the truck, the dog would chase him down the road and jump in the back as the truck was going. I can still see that in my memory. I also was in contact with Nicky and your mother when we lived in Blytheville in 1962 or 1963. We stopped and talked one day in town. Of course you know Bobby and Danny, Nicky' uncles. I haven't seen them since our grandmother Nola Knight Phillips died. My e-mail is tlangley001@tampabay.rr.com. Nola
