I've never done a blog, and I'm not real knowledgable about how to construct a family history.
But I want to share the things I have found with others. I wasn't quite sure where to start, so I just figured I might start here.
This is a picture of my great grandfather, Robert Bunts.
He was born September 22, 1874 and he died June 24, 1925.
Here's some info:
Excerpts from History of Virginia, Virginia Biography, Vol VI, pgs. 621-622, 1924:
"ROBERT BUNTS III, now generally known as Robert Bunts, Jr., president of the Pulaski Foundry Manufacturing Corporation, vice president of the Peoples National Bank of Pulaski, vice, president of The High Carbon Coal Company, and senior member of the Robert Bunts Engineering Company, is one of the substantial business men and public-spirited citizens of Pulaski County, whose standing is a high and unquestioned one.
He was born on a, farm near Max Meadows, Virginia, September 22, 1874, the son of John Mathas Bunts, whose grandfather immigrated from Germany and established his residence near Wytheville, Virginia, about 1804."
