Just sitting hear listening and watching a special of Elvis that is on all
night. Have heard that he was Melungeon,and I don't doubt it for a minute.
Wonder what the lines are, does anyone know? There is one thing for sure,
relation or not, if I had every been able to catch him, it would be another
one of those family trees that don't branch! I always tell my eldest that
Elvis was really her dad, she was conceived by looking at movie star
magazines and listening to his records, told her that I was going to claim
his inheritance for her that way. Ha Ha Funny thing is she DOES look a lot
like him. Her dad did kind of resemble him when he was about 18 to 20, and
later for a while after they both gained weight. Course I always thought
that her dad resembled Roy Rogers when he was real young, too. Roy was my
love when I was about 4 to 8 years old. Elvis came along when I was 10, when
I was 15 my husband came along and was both of them. I know , You can't see
how one person could resemble 2 people who didn't look alike, but they both
had the same shaped faces and noses and high cheek bones, so there!
Well, just wondered if anyone knew Elvis or Roy's lines. I did hear from
someone who was a cousin of Roy's,but do not remember what site it was on.
Well, Happy Trails, and Don't Be Cruel,
