Yes, I remember him, as well, although I'd never heard that story. I would think the church and cemetery would be Mount Shady. I thought he lived on the Swainsboro-Vidalia Road (now 297) in the Wilkes settlement. I remember Mr. Zin's high-pitched voice; his grandson, Bernard, talks the same way now. Bernard's parents, Charlie and Vergie, were good to talk with, too; they knew a lot of history. Wish I could still go and talk to all the old folks who have now gone on. So many had a wealth of knowledge of our ancestors and local places; but that knowledge has died with them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bo Mosley" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 09, 2008 8:44 AM Subject: [GAEMANUE] Mr Zin Hall > Olivia, > Sometime in the mid 1950's my father and I went to visit Mr. Zin Hall as > he > was a friend of my Father.
