I can't find the orig. e-mail I wanted to sent part of it. But it said the
court cert. The three over finances, insane, but can stay at home. I ask the
nice lady, what she thought the town court would call the creator of AOL or
Yahoo?

My answer.
((("" Did it say anything about Mose, He was My grandfather. In 1920 was head
of house hold in Nevada. They moved from ILL in 1902 when Jonas Butterfield
Bunker died, and bought lots of land and lots of horses. Then the horses
became ill and died losing everything. Everyone thought they were crazy for
taking the risk. In ILL they were always well to do farmers, raising livestock.
There family had some money. Elizabeth was too old to learn business I guess. I
wonder what the people of Nevada back then would have said about the person
who came up with AOL or Yahoo? My father Carl M. Bunker was born in Nevada and
lives in Irwin. He was in Japan, Korea, and Vietnam twice.( He was in the
very first group of Army that landed in Vietnam. He got 2 accommodation medals.
He was asked, and get this, TO HEAD UP ALL THE COMMUNICATIONS LINES (wire
taps Guess now) for the President Nixon Campaign 2 , but he turned it down for
retirement, and got out of the Army. (good choice).""" ))).

The Bushwhacker society is publishing a book on the people and history of
Nevada, MO. in Veron County. I would love to see the BFA put in a piece about
Bunkers.
