<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The postcard has been reproduced in multiple Rockdale publications . . .<br />

</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">According to a newspaper clipping from the files of my cousin, Peggy, a Henry* family reunion was held at the old Hamilton homeplace in Rockdale, Milam County, Texas sometime in 1931. That yellowed and crumbling piece of paper recorded the following about the arrival of my 2nd great-grandpa, <a href="http://gonetotexas.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Henry&action=display&thread=17" target="_BLANK">William Paschal Henry</a> (1836-1912), and his family in the brand-new town of <a href="http://rockdale-myhometown.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Rockdale, Milam County, Texas</a> . . .<br />
</span><br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">On <b>Oct. 3, 1876</b>, the Henrys arrived in Rockdale to visit a sister and family of <a href="http://gonetotexas.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Davis&action=display&thread=39" target="_blank">Mrs. Henry's</a>, it being Dr. and Mrs. M.F. Anthony, who at that time had the post office and drug store combined on the corner where the Wolf Hotel now stands.</span></blockquote>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">That is the Hotel Wolf in the lower right corner of the above collage, with an arrow pointing to the same building on the old Rockdale postcard. The Hotel had gone out of business before 1935 when Rockdale's American Legion post purchased the building.<br />

<br />
<blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">During World War II the building's second story was lopped off and its Main Street front was shortened and remodeled. A stage was added and the hall became the place to be for dances and music for almost 20 years. Rockdale Reporter, 06 Aug 1998</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When I was in high school (the 60's), we frequently spent a portion of our weekend hours attending teen dances -- with real live bands! -- in the un-airconditioned bottom-half of this building. My parents were regular fixtures as chaperones at these events.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Directly across the street was McVoy's Grocery Store where my parents shopped weekly. Every Friday, my widowed Grandma, who never learned to drive, had her grocery list ready for Mom or Dad to take with them to McVoy's. There was a large wooden magazine rack near the front door where I would sit and read comic books while Mom checked out. Mr. Galbreath kept the produce stocked and freshly washed, and would give us pieces of fresh sugar cane to chew on. The meat market at McVoy's was where Mom bought steak cutlets for making her infamous chicken-fried steak with cream gravy which NONE of us have ever been able to replicate.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I was back on Main Street just this past weekend (2009) while in Rockdale for the 75th Annual <a href="http://rockdale-homecoming.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Rockdale Homecoming</a> as well as my Mom's <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/Rockdale.Texas/1949RHS2009#" target="_blank">60th RHS Class Reunion</a>, where I was flattered to be told by numerous people (who had known Mom since the 40s) that, "You look just like your Mom!"<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At the Homecoming gathering, one lady said to me, "Aren't you the one who found the snake in the bedroom when you were babysitting Delaine?" That was also during high school in the 60s! I was babysitting for the local pharmacist in his home. The baby and I were sitting in the rocker / recliner in her nursery when I saw a snake come crawling in the room! I got out of the room with Delaine and shut the door (which wasn't much of a barrier since it had such a gap at the bottom) and called my trusty Dad at our home (no cell phones in those days). Dad was there immediately, but it took him a while to find and kill the poisonous <i>copperhead</i> -- it had crawled up into the coils under the rocker / recliner!<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Before I left town, we (me & Mom & my sister) visited the Dan Kubiak exhibit at the I&GN Depot, and I also took a few photos of Joy Graham's <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/Rockdale.Texas/BitOfHistory#" target="_blank">Bit of History</a> building on Cameron Avenue.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The journey back home to Main Street was nostalgic, while somehow filled with the sweet assurance that at <i>Home</i> we are not forgotten. These people knew me as a child. They knew my grandparents. And in some cases, their parents and grandparents knew my ancestors. And many of the families of Rockdale have somehow managed to climb into my family tree! V. . . . June 2009 . . .<br />
