Piney had an old horse called Bell. When wheel was comming off wagon, Piney kept hollaring Woa Bell, Woa.
I've visited County Line Cemetery many times and have seen the tombstones of Chana, Martha, Percy and others. Also that is where Gran and Grandaddy Forgy are buried. It's kind of interesting how they got there. The Forgy family plot is in Center Point and Forgy's come from a long line of Methodists. County Line is basically Baptist and the Briggs were Baptists. When GrandDaddy Forgy died in 1940, she insisted over the objections of her sons that he be buried at County Line. It was her contention that the Baptists would provide perpetual care bettter that the methodists. As it turns out both cemeteries are still relatively well cared for, except that Center Point is now maintained by the Church of Christ...by Jack Forgy [hendren10.FTW]
