My dear Cousin;
I'm sure you think I must have "passed away" - But I'm still here. After my long illness, I had to almost lean how to live over again; & writing has come hardest of all. I am just as much interested in Ancestry as I ever was. I have found that our Gunn grandparents came to Dinwiddie Co., VA. and they had no sons, only the three daughters. Elizabeth Murphy, Margaret Hamilton & Lydia (Gunn) Hornbuckle. And that Wm. Gunn's wife was named Elizabeth. I may write to Va. & see if I can find any information.
Mrs. Wildman a great-granddaughter of Elizabeth Gunn Murphy lives in Tuscaloosa, Ala. She has been a visit here, but I missed seeing her. She is 74 years old. Her daughter Alice teaches I understand at the University of Ala.
This has been such a very hot summer. I have been doing my own cooking, but haven't suffered as I have an oil stove and a fireless cooker. We are going to have a gas plant in town this fall sometime & then I'll have gas to cook with. The children have started to school again. Nobody at home with me but my baby she is going on four years old. She's lots of company.
With love - your cousin,
Elise Paget**************************

Lila dear, You may be a bit interested in the enclosed. Paul Murphy is a grandson of Elizabeth Gunn, sister of your Lydia & my Margaret. I haven't seen Paul in a long time. When I did see him, he was a much better looking fellow than this picture.
His father, Sam Murphy was brother to Mrs. Wildman and your mother (Eliza Wyatt Hornbuckle) & I both corresponded with Alice Wildman. She was highly educated.
I can't remember where they lived. I looked up Gunns till I came ot a dead end and there I stopped.
Am still expecting you at my door sometime this spring. Try it & see what a welcome you'll get!
I just thought this might interest you.
Love,
Elise Paget
