    Notes:

    Michael...
    No problem. Yes, those are my parents. I think I've seen the "Brasfield Genealogy" book and posed the question (about grandma Bunn's middle name) to both my mother and my aunt. They both contend her name was Zenona. I have her marriage license to my grandfather and it lists her middle name as Genonia. I also think the "History of Monroe County" lists it as Senoma (with an 'm'). All I remember is that we heard her called Onie as we were growing up. I do not think I have any documentation with Zenona.

    Just as a clarification, my father's real name was Bannie, he was named after a family friend Bannie Schumpert. And my mother's full name is Velma Ann Lovelace.

    Be my guest with the pictures on my website.

    Barry - Sorry to be a pest, but are you the son of Bennie & Velma Bunn? Also, the published "Brasfield Genealogy" book shows your grandmother as Martha Senona Brasfield. Middle name spelled with an "S" rather than a "Z", and nick names of Onie or Manonie. Before I change my files, I wanted to confirm that the middle name was spelled with a "Z". Thanks again. Also a favor to ask - may I have permission to download Martha's photo and use it on my web site with appropriate credit to you and your family web site? Mike

    Michael...
    Glad you received it ok.

    Yes, I am related to him. My grandmother was Martha Z. Brasfield daughter of Lafayette Brasfield and Betty Massengale. She was one of Joe's sisters. She married William Rueben Bunn. If you're interested you could check out www.bunncrib.50megs.com
    I have some pictures of her and William as well as the rest of the Bunns.
