Dedicated to my mother, Jaquelin Lee Caskie Burns, born at Gale Hill on March 16, 1920, died in Charlottesville, Virginia, March 21, 2006.
Also dedicated to Elizabeth Coalter Bryan Williston (1871-1957). Without her devotion to Gale Hill and its families, much of what follows would have been lost.
***
in these degenerate days the rising generation, instead of keeping alive the family tree from which they sprang & handing it down with laudable pride to the posterity seem actually to be ashamed of their ancestry & take pride in being perfectly ignorant of their origin
Dr. John Minor, Gale Hill, November 7, 1848
