My wife was born in the same year as Wally Yates and grew up in Bordeaux with your uncle Wally. She knew other members of his family and her parents and Wally's parents were friends. Her name was Rita Boulden. Although she has Alzheimer's now and a lot of her memory is gone, she still has vivid memories of Bordeaux. We took a trip down there to see the Mima Mounds and Bordeaux on Wednesday of this week. She remembered that the Bordeaux kids used to ride their bikes up and down the mounds. We could not find much from the road since it is so grown up with trees now so we really enjoyed seeing what you guys found. Thanks again for sharing. Tom Hammett Hi Carol,

Thanks for stopping by and correcting the name of the 'crick'. It's always nice when one of the past Bordeaux residents helps me out with details. I didn't live there so I just do the best I can. <abbr><em>Carol´s last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ipentimento/yiNU/~3/6JBofDmMGKo/" rel="nofollow">Genealogy Central 98366</a></em></abbr> Hello Pete!

The little creek, (which I also pronounce "crick") is actually Mima Creek. My grandfather worked at Bordeaux in the late 1930's. The family lived at Gate, where I still reside. Great article.

I created a short video in Bordeaux back in 1988- it's posted on Google video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6280589357060282107 It looks like the Alder asd other brush has grown up a lot in the last 20 years. Also- there is a second vault a little farther along the road on the same side as the first. It was nearly covered by English Ivy in 1988, so it's probably hidden by now. Great post!
