Sorry to hear about Carey, Just found out he passed away. It has been years that I spoke to him about the Bunker Family History. Back in 1990 he gave me a book on the Bunker Family....I still have the book.
Carey and I are were 4th cousin from the Phillips line. Elizabeth Phillips married Jesse Bunker here in Fayette Co., Pa.

Mr. Bunker was my teacher for both English and Spanish at Palo Verde HS in 1964-70. I still think about him often because his teaching methods really made things easy for me to remember.

My condolences to the family. Rest Well, Mr. Bunker.
