Dannette, I have some local newspaper stories and pictures of the house. I don't have
any pix, though, of my great, great grandfather Israel Causey or his wife, Margaret Foyle
Causey. I surely would appreciate if you could scan them to me. I have a picture of one of
the daughters, Sarah, who married Richard Henry Cousins, the younger; she was Dr. Wm Luke
Cousins' beloved mother. Might you also have any other family pictures or more pix of
the house? Almost ten years ago, I brought my daughter and my sister and her family to
Atlanta for a whirlwind tour of 6 cemeteries in 3 days. I must admit I'm a bit of a
backseat driver, and my sister and I really squabbled on the way out to Austell. Of
course, I was the correct one! ;-) Unfortunately, we didn't have time to go see the
house, so I have never actually seen the house. I remember, around 1950, our going out to
the cemetery for cleaning the place up and having a potluck and fellowship. And, around
1972, I went to do the ceme!
tery thing with my grandfather. I remember a lady standing by me and Grandpa told me
that, if my daughter and my mother were there, there would be 6 generations represented.
Now I live in Oakland, Calif., but I love to hear of family lore and pictures. Maybe I
could pass on some more stories by another Causey descendant here in Calif.
My e-address is willsing4u(a)comcast.net , if you care to reach me directly.
