Jon, On the Issue of Johnsons Island in Ohio, did you read the article in the Akron Beacon Journal. The Lady Reporter, Fran, said she was amazed when she saw carved on a large boulder on the Island that 2,300 confederate soilders were buried there.. I believe you, but where did she come up with such a number. And on what Boulder on the Island. I went to the Johnson Island web site and never saw that mentioned. What's happened. I'll be in Ohio in March, I think I'll go visit the cemetery. Jack Briles jb502000@aol.com
