THE MYSTERY IS SOLVED! Thanks to two people in Verona, MS, Mr. Julian Riley and Ms. Rachel Ann Harden, the mystery of Rosella and Rosalinda Presley has not only been resolved, but told in such an honorable and awesome way that it is a must to review. There is a new website entitled, Roots Of Elvis Presley, where all of this information is being stored. Go to: www.rootsofelvispresley.com/ and have a good look around. You are in for a very special treat. Julian and Rachel have spent over two years developing this project which is part of a special museum located in Verona, MS. For the very first time, Rosella's story is told and the true grandfather of Elvis is revealed, a guarded family secret for many years which Elvis and Vernon knew about but kept out of respect for Rosella and the family. Now, the family story is told, and the many ancestral and descendant families are for the very first time revealed. These folks are to be commended for their tactful and honorable approach to this long-mysterious puzzle and long a foremost major stumbling block to the completion of the Presley Family History.  Thank
you, Julian and Rachel. Please visit their wonderful site and
at this time, The Kin of Rock and Roll
wishes to thank Julian and Rachel for the diligent efforts
in bringing this story out in the incredible, heartwarming manner
in which they have. And a special thanks to Mackey Hargett,
the "secret visitor" to Graceland® for over twenty
years who held the key to the (his)story. Thanks to Mackey,
too, founder Barbara Lee, finally learned the whereabouts of
her Hargett line who went down to Itawamba County! The
Presley Family line from Rosella and MaryJane "Rosalinda"
Presley is so amazing and well-documented that Graceland®
sent two of their archivists down to Verona to check the story
out. As Julian tells it,
"They
were blown away by it!" Hopefully,
Graceland® will begin to work with the Presley family and
their researchers to aid in the completion of a final and "official"
Presley Family History. copyright: 2007 Julian C. Riley and Rachel Ann Harden The Roots of Elvis Presley details the family lines of Elvis' direct and more recent connections while The Kin of Rock and Roll connects Elvis and his direct family lines to the ancestors and gives more insight to the ancestral lines as well as exists as a tribute to our cousin, Elvis. *************** STAY TUNED FOR MORE!

You Trust in God...

Elvis enters the chart chasing Flo-Rida feat. T-Pain Low that this week is at position 47 and before Leona Lewis's Bleeding Love, at number 49. Elvis' new remix has already been sitting at the Italian Official Nielsen Charts for 7 weeks, setting the new chart record.

Former
Republican Senator Jesse A. Helms has passed away on the fourth
of July, 2008. He was 86 years of age. Senator Helms was a
descendant of Thomas Presley, and was born in Monroe, North
Carolina on October 18, 1921. He served in the United States
Navy during WWII. For many years he had fought for justice
and the American way. He was labeled quite often a racist
for some of his views and remarks, but Sen. Helms stood up
for what was right, fair and balanced, and not for political
correctness, the downfall today of our nation's priorities.
In an ad for his 1990/1996 campaign as Mayor of Charlotte,
Sen. Helms established that many were overlooked for employment
simply because they were not minorities. This is not racist,
it is fact. The commercial shows a white fist crumbling up
a job application and underneath were the words: "You
needed that job...but they had to give it to a minority."
Senator Helms had recollections of his youth spent in Monroe,
where the Presley and Helms families came up. "I shall
always remember the shady streets, the quiet Sundays, the
cotton wagons, the Fourth of July parades, the New Year's
Eve firecrackers. I shall never forget the stream of school
kids marching uptown to place flowers on the Courthouse Square
monument on Confederate Memorial Day." Today, political
correctness teaches that our children should not remember
those who fought for the Confederate states although everyone
of those soldiers was and is an American veteran. Senator
Helms never lost a race for Senate since 1972. He will be
missed. I still recall the phone call I received from him
one Christmas Day two years ago, before he became ill. He
wished me a very Merry Christmas and told me that if I ever
needed his help, he would gladly give it.
