Several years ago while visiting my OLIVER / HOLLAND cousins in Allen County, KY., I met someone who had distant connections to some of the surnames I was researching. I met, Mildred Ackerman Jent. She was an ex-school teacher in her late 70s and had actually taught some of my ancestors at those wonderful little old school houses in Allen County, KY. Mildred had a deep interest in Genealogy as her own ancestral ties, (like my own), went back to those early beginnings of Allen County. This lady was a walking encyclopedia with volumes to say and volumes of knowledge to share. She had a wonderful creative style of writing, bringing the least little detail into focus, coloring it with words of beauty, expression, love, and joy. She spoke and wrote with vivacious enthusiasm! Mildred and I exchanged letters for awhile and one day I received a packet in the mail. It was a packet from Mildred. It was a packet of her wonderful personal stories of the life and times of her GOODRUM ancestors. The GOODRUM line is not my direct or even my collateral line, yet her ancestors indeed connected to mine in other ways. My only connection to the Goodrum line is in my friendship to the lady who wrote the story of her ancestors, known as, "THE GOODRUM PAPERS." The author of these papers has graciously consented and given approval for me to share her research with so.....It's with great joy and pleasure I'm able to share these papers with you. Mildred wrote from the heart, in a very personal style, yet filling in with her notes of personal research done over many years.

She was a very special lady to many, many children, their children, and even grandchildren. I consider myself fortunate to have been one of her students. She along with my mother taught me the love of reading. Most days she read a story to us kids. Jesse Stuart became one of my favorite authors as a result of Mrs. Jent's reading his stories to us.
