My grandmother was born in 1912 and at about the age of 12 was brought up by her sister, who married a Pinson. I think the right hand of Brushy fork not Brushy Creek as I had mentioned before. Thanks for reading the poem Leo. You and Heather are awesome story tellers of the past. 😢 Rest in peace little guy!

Heather and Leo, Jim and I want to tell you that todays video was amazing and really touched us both. Jim is almost blind so I write you for us. He wanted you to know that this one touched his heart. The way Leo talks about each person, the way Heather edited it. He was especially touched by the 11 year old boy with the "Wheelchairs in Heaven" quote. Jim lost a son due to not having kidneys and this quote reassures him that TJ is not hurting. Also, Jim uses a wheelchair if we go somewhere so hearing this tells him one day he wont need it. He would greatly appreciate an address where he can send you some money to get some flowers, ( just a few), to put on the gravesite of Sid Hatfield. This man did more for the working man than he is given credit for. He believes everyone needs to recognize Sid Hatfield as what he did was straight from God. Jim doesn't like cops much so for him to honor one is one in a million. Jim spent 35 years out on the road having to deal with them. Just want to wish you both the best. We look forward to your next video. Be safe
