Greats, K Mountains, and wounded



My late mother-in-law, Marie, was a great great grandmother when she passed.  A great grand-person can cover a lot of time.

Taker William Trammell for instance:  William Trammell (1752-1843) fought in the Revolutionary War.  His arm was sliced off in the Battle Kings’ Mountain.

His great grandson, William Hunter/Trammell (     1842-1928) , fought in the Civil War and was shot in the knee during the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain.
And on of William Hunter’s great grandson is me.

Odd fact:  Both Williams above was wounded during a battle named after a mountain that started with K.

William Hunter, Grandson son Herbert Hunter, holding son Ray Hunter, and William's son, Herbert's Father, and Ray's grandpa, Frank Hunter.
