Good Evening, All our family verbal stories tell us GrGrandpa John was a caring soul. He donated land for schools and burial gounds not only for his own family but for the use of his neighbors. Not one of his children, regardless of which mother they had, went hungry or lacked clothes on their backs. He and his parents lived among the Cherokee Indian nation without rancor. In fact, he was a close friend of several of the noted Indian chiefs of the early 1800's in Northwest Georgia. His Indian name was Yonah. The character and self respect he instilled in his children were passed on to each generation and today we have proudly and reverently passed those same traits on to our own families. I am the father of six children and, as of this date, 13 grandkids and 3 gr-gr-grand children. Again, I repeat, he must have been one hell of man to raise 15 children (five died in infancy) who never suffered from need. Contrary to the way kids are raised today, we were taught to say "Yes Sir or Yes Mam," or say "pardon me" if we wanted to ask a question while grownups were in the midst of a conversation. Expletives were totally unacceptable contrary to the terrible language many children hear in their homes today. Not one of us dared go home and tell our parents that some policeman hit us across the buttocks with a club. If we had, our father would have asked what we did to warrant the club and we would have gotten it twice as bad from our father. There wouldn't be any of that, "How dare he hit my kid." Yes, it takes decent and God fearing parents to raise kids today!
