Okay, I am finally back and ready to party with y'all. Where are we now? I have brought with me my elusive Great-grandfather, John Manuel Armstrong. He is sitting in the chair beside me (well, actually he is taking up two chairs because I understand that he weighed about 350 pounds.) but refuses to tell me anything. All I know about him is that his father was James Armstrong and his mother was Sarah Jane McCoy. He was born April 13, 1863 in Woodford County, Kentucky. He married Mary Elizabeth McCoy (I do not know if she was related to his mother or not) on March 20, 1889 in Lexington (Fayette County) Kentucky. I have never seen a picture of him but I understand that is where my red hair (well, it used to be red, now it is sprinkled with white) came from. I would love to find his siblings but he just will not cooperate. Did every Armstrong have at least one John and one James just to confuse us? Let me know where we are so that I can catch up. Is the music playing/ I am ready to dance on the tables. Grace

Hey, I'm back. What sights! But why were they all running away and covering up? Ready for another drink, maybe some good rum and ginger ale. The munchies sure are good. Just leave out the ones with crabs and other kinds of shellfish. I'll leave that to Fount. Hey let's play another song.
