Pruett Deskins Family Archive

Eunice Ilene Pruett born November 1924

Eunice lived on Atwell Mountain her entire life. She was a loving, caring, fun, witty matriarch in this family. She worked hard all of her life. She walked the mountain for pleasure and to do chores. She always had a poem, story, song or dance to share with the children. She got up each day at the crack of dawn to start breakfast – in her younger years she cooked on a wood cook stove so  her day started by lighting a fire in the stove then getting the food ready to cook – oh the biscuits that came from that stove! Eunice never complained about hard work – by the smile on her face and her praise to God for everything she had, no one would have known the labor of her days.

Eunice Ilene Pruett married Lemuel George.

Lemuel and Eunice George had 2 children:

Franklin David George

Mary Carolyn George
