Much was gone on my last visit. | ecunningham@att.net My cousin's ex-husband never enrolled in the Social Security program. They tried to force him, but he won out. Of course, he didn't get any retirement benefits - but then, he didn't need them. All of his employees, however, were covered (including my cousin). The restaurant I referred to was called the Happy Landing - it was on the Biloxi side of the Back Bay Bridge. I don't know if it was still in existence as late as Hurricane Katrina. I know my mother's former home on St. Charles Avenue in West Biloxi (which withstood Hurricane Camille) disappeared during Katrina! My brother-in-law's niece owned a home directly across the street from it (I found out later) and it was pretty much destroyed as well. My cousin's former home in Bay St. Louis had just the slab left plus a little debris from the house. What's the old saying? It's an ill wind that blows no good? Henry

The greatest disappearance in history was when 7 million American children suddenly vanished on 15 April 1987. That was when the Internal Revenue Service required the child's social security number if it was claimed as a tax deducation. -- Steve Hayes E-mail: hayesmstw@hotmail.com (see web page if it doesn't work) Web: http://hayesfam.bravehost.com/famhist1.htm http://www.geocities.com/Athens/7783/
