I honeymooned in Jackson, WY several years ago and noticed a bar named "Beaver Dicks". Any relation to Beaver Jack? BTW, my wife had a great time with that one until I spotted the Mangy Moose Saloon.
Wyoming is a great place in spite of any nonfriendly's.

Beaver Dicks is a mighty small bar. If yer wife liked it so much, it don't say much fer you. My sympathies to any feller what cain't compete with beaver dicks. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hey BJ where are you from in Kentucky? Back in the early to mid 80s I used to do some bowhunting down around Louisa. Had a couple of buddies that were from Pikeville(pronounced packfull by the locals).

My kin's all from the Monroe Co., Barren Co. area originally. Love the Packville area though. Them switches are steeper then any western roads I been on. My 5th great grandaddy came thru the pass on foot an' homesteaded in Washington County TN. He later got a revolutionary war vets land grant in what's now the Dale Holler Lake area of Clay County. Don't reckin' there's hardly a person in thet area thet ain't related to me somehows. Allays tolt my kids to pick a whole differnt part of the state when they go spouse huntin'. Anyhoo, if they'd thin out the yankees, bring back decent rabbit huntin', an' blow up some of them malls they're puttin' in 'round there, I'd love to go back when I retire. I'll likely be so busted up from mules, walkin' the rabbit brush an' sittin' in the stands at Rupp will be all's I'll be good fer by then. I 'spose there's worse ways to end up.

Don't think so. If they got any Copas, Birdwell, Davis, Gulley, Bostic in 'em then I am. Those is old pioneer names thet's still plentyful down home. Oh, some Hatchers too. The trouble with ancesters names is wimmin folk. They marry an' change their name (mostly) an' you lose track of who their kin is. Its even worser fer injun ancestors. Some of my grandaddy's married cherokee wimmin cause there weren't a lot of new white blood in those days, an' well, a man has needs. The injun names were changed to christian names but the tribal roles still had the injun name. On top of thet, the names were spelt differnt by census takers an' courts an' many people were illiterate so they didn't fuss when their names were spelt wrong. One ancestor of mine was named Joel Gulley, but the 1880 census taker spelt it Jowell Gulley, an' his discharge papers spelt it Joel Gully. I don't mean to ramble on but I been studyin' this stuff lately. There's a book 'bout ol' BJ's pioneer family called "Out of the Mouth of the Shenendoah". Its outta print now, but fine readin' an' I'll pay anybody thet wants to sell me a copy. I've only seed bits an' pieces thet cousins have copied from libraries or personal copies. How 'bout a standin' offer. Elk jerky for life (mine) for anybody thet can send BJ a copy of thet book!

RE: Hunting in Wyoming
Yeah I know what you mean about old records. My dad is really into genealogy, and I've heard the same type of complaints from him. We have a bunch of family that is from western KY. I'd have to check with my dad for all of their pedigrees, but I do know we are related to Abe Lincoln's mother. If memory serves we are related to the Neal, Stout and Andrick famalies, all from KY. The Bostic name sounds familiar too, I'll have to check with my dad. Wouldn't that be a kick in the ass if we were distantly related? I've been hunting WY every chance I get since '98. Actually lived there too for a short time when I was a kid. My dad was stationed at the Air Force Base in Cheyenne.
