2401 Case Cemetery TATE, Joseph Alexander (I13706)
 
2402 Casper Lafayette Brasfield was born June 23, 1917 as the seventh of eight children to Joseph Arthur Brasfield and Ora Beulah Ausborn Brasfield. He enlisted and served in the US Army during World War II in the 79th Division, 314 Regiment, 2nd Battalion, H Company. Battles and campaigns included Normandy, Northern France and Central Europe. He received many decorations and citations including ATO Medal, EAMETO Medal, Good Conduct Medal, Purple Heart Medal with one OLC, Dist Unit Badge and World War II Victory Medal. While overseas during the war, he learned of his fathers passing in 1944 by a letter from his oldest sister, Fleta. He received an Honorable Discharge from the Army on December 19, 1945 and returned to his home in Monroe County, Mississippi.

He worked in the lumber industry with Gilmore Puckett Lumber Company until heart problems forced him to retire. He never stopped working though. He could build anything if it involved a hammer and piece of lumber. He raised four children and was very proud of them all. He enjoyed his three granddaughters and one grandson as well. Two more grandchildren, as well as three great-grandchilden have come along since Daddy's passing, but there is no doubt he would have been entertained by them also.

Daddy loved to talk about the War and share his experiences. Some of Daddy and Mama's most enjoyable times were spent organizing, planning and attending army reunions all over the United States as well as hosting smaller reunions at their home in Amory with 8 or 10 couples who lived nearby in neighboring states. My siblings and I also enjoyed helping with the reunions and listening to all the stories.

One Saturday night Daddy was suffering from an excruciating head ache. Mama called the ambulance to take him to the hospital. Daddy was suffering from a subarachnoid hemorrhage, which evidentially ruptured in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Daddy died one week later October 10, 1992 in the Intensive Care Unit at Gilmore Memorial Hospital in Amory, Mississippi.

Thank you Daddy for being you. You were a great man and I was always so proud to call you Daddy. I miss you everyday. Your daughter, Patricia Elaine Brasfield Simmons.

2405 Catherine Ferguson/peal Posted by Randy Peal on Tue, 15 Jun 1999 Surname: Ferguson, Peal, Badgett, Brasfield I'm looking for information about Catherine Ferguson that married Raspberry Peal married (abt. 1845). Raspberry Peal was in the 1850 census for Gibson county TN., which I belive was later named Crockett County TN. Raspberry Peal and Catherine Ferguson may also have ties in NC. Their Children are: Harriet L. Peal , Eugenia E. Peal, George Raspberry Peal, James Henry Peal, Johnathan Franklin Peal, Frances Peal, Robert silvester Peal (Married Anna Badgett they lived in Friendship TN.) Joe Cephas Peal married Eva Irene Brasfield. Also would like to know if anyone has information on Rasberry Peal's line, Raspberry Peal was born december 1st 1813 in williamson county North Carolina but could also be williamson county TN. And died Nov 12, 1885. If anyone has information about of any of these descendants please reply. Thanks..... ****************************** Hi michael, (9/12/2000) My name is Randy Peal and my Great Great Grandfather was James Henry Peal. He was known as Henry J. Peal, he was R.B Peal's son. There are some Brasfields in the family. Two that I can think of off hand Ira Brassfield who married Lula Peal and also Eva Irene Brasfield who married Joe Cephus Peal. That's the two I can think of off hand. It sounds like we are definately related. I look forward to hearing from you. From: Johnathan R. Peal "Randy" audioplus@home.com ********************************* Randy - (9/13/2000) Thanks for the contact. According to my genealogy software "relationship calculator", Eva Irene Brasfield Peal (wife of Josephus Cephas Peal) is a 3rd cousin, once removed. So if you are related to from that union we are probably related also. However, the "calculator" does not show any formal relationship to me through James Henry (Henry J.) Peal or Raspberry B. Peal. I have information on 2 different Ira Brasfields, but no information on a marriage to "Lula Peal". I would appreciate any information that you would be willing to share on Ira and Lula. Again, thank you for taking the time to "write". BRASFIELD, Eva Irene (I43082)

2434 Census age could possibly be 19 rather than 79, which would have made his birth year 1831 rather than 1771. That would be more consistent with the ages of the fellow miners on that census page.
