Virgil White and Vester Eubanks were both Uncles of mine. Robert Loveless (if I have the right one) was a 2nd cousin, once removed. As to Vester's "regular appointment" I don't know, unless he was a JP at the time. I know he was a JP in the early 30's, but don't know about this particular year. Is this "Margaret Knowles" the daughter of Jessie and Irene? I may have families/years mixed on that one. Jann, Great postings!! I hardly ever post (I learn a lot more reading the other member's postings). Although I was born in 'possum valley, I never spent any time there, and I truly enjoy hearing about the times. I recall my dad's stories about some of the people ya'll have talked about. It's a good feeling. Please keep on "hogging!" Larry
