Salute to our GIs

So long as our GIs are endangered in Iraq and Afghanistan, we will keep this flag here.  

We proudly display our country's flag in honor of our servicemen overseas.

Do not forget  Those Who Served, and those who now are serving our Nation.

Hi,  My name is Tom Baughman. My gggggrandfather 

was Christian Baughman,who was an early settler in the

 area. It was his son John who donated the land for the 

Baughman Cemetary. I am looking for any information 

on Christian Baughman. Where he died, when he died or 

where he is buried. After his children were born it seems l

ike he just dropped out of sight. The last time I was in Tyrone 

I spent the day at the Library. They were very nice and helpful. 

We were able to locate many ancestors in the Cemetery. 

 would be glad to hear from anyone who is familiar with the

 name.           Thanks, Tom Baughman, Anderson SC    gitfiddle@charter.net

In addition to heading up the Tyrone Teener League for

many years, Bob and his helpers collected countless

 tons of newspapers which they turned in for money to

help maintain Ferner Field.  He will be missed 

by thousands of kids, now adults, who were helped

to develop their sports skills and their attitudes.

  Thanks to Bob for being such an inspiration to so many.
