Robert Reid at the Saline Mines. I'm not sure if it came through the Saline Co., Gallatin Co., or Williamson Co. IL. Who ever posted that message I would like to contact you. You had a lot of Partons named and their families in the post. My great Grandfather was Seaborn Banister Parton and my grandmother was Ida Parton Russell. Thank you, JoAnn
