On June 17-19, 1972, Mary Yancey Biswell and Charles Bedford Biswell visited her brother Thomas "Ralph" Yancey at his home in Williamsburg, VA, where Ralph Yancey explained Yancey family history in colonial and post-colonial Virginia that he was researching.

Ralph was a major general in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Korea for a time.

Ralph Yancey also recounts a story about a visit that his great-nephew Robert Ferrier made about an alleged breakfast order that was placed. In Robert's defense, his mother Diane Biswell Ferrier denies that this would have happened.
