There is an article on John Perkins RALLS, Minister, Physician, Statesman. Also something on the Ralls Sanitorium, it burned and he rebuilt it and called it Forrest General Hospital in 1928. Dr. RALLS was also one of the early families of the First United Methodist Church, 115 South Fifth St., Gadsden, Al. PS Whoever is researching HALLMARK, they are descendants of the RALLS. Send an address and I will copy and mail to you. delilah ----- Original Message ----- From: "Linda Stiles" <Gann49@earthlink.net> To: <ALETOWAH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 19, 2005 3:19 PM Subject: [ALETOWAH] Rall's Infirmary and Gadsden Car Works > Does anyone have any knowledge of the Rall's Infirmary that was in service > during 1919 in Gadsden.
