Bin gerade dabei das Buch "Last Train to Memphis" zu lesen. Mit Verwunderung las ich, dass die Presleys zigmal umgezogen sind. Sie wohnten sogar mal ausserhalb von Tupelo.(Pascagoula , in der Nähe von Biloxi (Golfküste))
Meine Frage: Gibt es eine genaue Liste mit den Wohnungsanschriften der Fam. Presley ? Existieren noch Bilder dazu ? Es ist auch von einer North Green Street in Tupelo die Rede.
Ich habe auch gar nicht gewusst, das Vernon das Haus in Tupelo selber gebaut hat. Das Buch ist Klasse !

Here is a list of Elvis' residences over the years:

306 Old Saltillo Road, East Tupelo, MS
The tiny home that Vernon Presley built with $180 in materials. It was Elvis'
birthplace.

Gulf coast. The family was so homesick they soon moved back to Tupelo.

Ach Du Kacke! Ich denke, die hatten eh nicht viel zum einpacken.
Im Buch heisst es: Immer wenn die Miete nicht bezahlt werden konnte, wurde umgezogen". Bilder gibt es aber nicht zu allen Wohnungen, gell ?

Danke, Marie!
