    3. Paulina, What kind of info do you have on those Johnson clan?? My Johnson's were in Louisville, Shelbyville, KY and Southern IN. I also have a pic of a Johnson girl which reads Middletown!

    2. Kenny & Lisa
    3. Nancy (aka NankieBee), Thanks for your thoughts. I am unsure if it is the same Bisig family, but would love to hear from them if so. My Bisig family actually lived at 124 S. Spring St. I am certain my Peter Bisig had siblings, children & cousins just to name a few- Adam, Joseph, Johann, Meinrad, Carl, Andrew, Peter, Frank, Henry, not to mention the female Bisig's. Any additional insight which you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Much, Kenny Schmid http://schmidgenealogy.homestead.com/Schmid.html "Connecting Great Relatives-1 Person at a time" > All outbound mail is virus scanned for your protection

August Willich's Gallant Dutchmen: Civil War Letters from the 32nd Indiana Infantry Joseph R. Reinhart Wednesday, September 20 - Noon The Filson Historical Society Organized by Colonel August Willich, a former Prussian army officer who led troops during the German Revolution of 1848, Indiana's German 32nd regiment fought in the Western Theater of the Civil War. The 32nd Indiana forged an enviable combat record on the battlefields at Rowlett's Station in Kentucky; at Shiloh, Stones River, and Missionary Ridge in Tennessee; and at Chickamauga and Pickett's Mill in Georgia. These rare documents connect the contemporary reader to the world of the patriotic immigrant soldier and his hard-fighting regiment, revealing personal motivations, wartime experiences, opinions, ethnic pride and bravery. Joseph R. Reinhart is an independent scholar who has specialized in Civil War Research.

    2. Dottie Brentlinger
    3. I know this is too early for all on the list, but my late father-in-law Bob Brentlinger told about taking produce to Louisville very early in the morning and stopping at Bardstown and Taylorsville road intersection and having lunch on the way home to Jeffersontown. This would be 1915-1917 time period. There was a bar/saloon where the old Bard Theater later stood and they served hard boiled eggs and beer for a nickel. Dottie

    2. Dottie Brentlinger
    3. There is an article by Byron Crawford in the Courier-Journal about the Long Run Massacre today. The article is in the Metro and is titled "225 years ago, Terror gripped Kentucky Frontier" Painted Stone Settlers living history re-enactors will stage the re-enactment Sept 15 -17. For more information www.paintedstonesettlers.org <http://www.paintedstonesettlers.org/> It is ironic that if Donnie gets the file and has the time, the Long Run Cemetery burials will hit the Ky Jefferson County list about that time. There looks to be about 150 people listed. Sorry Donnie, I just had to tell. Dottie

It is the advent of pizza. I seem to recall and I could be wrong, that pizza was a food brought to the U.S. by soldiers who were probably with the gallant Fifth Army in Italy during WWII. They did not get home until about 1945. I have written a book about the Fifth Army and Louisville's Laban Jackson, who worked for and knew Gen Patton and Gen Clark and their wives. Labe was HQ Commandant. for both. I did not learn about pizza from my research, but from my trips to Schenectady, NY in the 1950's, where every other person spoke some kind of Italian and every person ate pizza. Anyway, soldiers were said to have brought back pizza from Italy and Sicily. So there are those of us who recall Louisville and think good German apfelstrudel (strudel mit apples) was the nectar of the gods and there are those who remember Louisville for its pizza parlors. The former group seems to be older, and when it comes to nostalgia, age helps. I, for one, chose to clog my arteries mit apfelstrudel.

    3. Dear Listers, And here is another question: Does anyone remember Hoffmann Restaurant near First St. and Jefferson or Main St.? John Hoffmann ran it for years and then I think his son did. There was the Hoffmann name on the building for at least the next 50 years and it may still be there. There were factories and warehouses in the area. People who were in the "eating out" class would go there for lunch. Lunch pail types would go there only on special occasions. My grandfather, when he was young and single, would visit the place. Hoffmann's stepdaughter worked there and caught his eye. And here I am. Yes, they married first. Tom the bewildered PamCat1954@aol.com wrote: > How about I throw my 2 cents in?

Also, as you entered Shawnee Park from Fountaine Ferry side there was a soft drink lean-to stand (think it was painted green). Don't know if he sold more than drinks and snacks because all my sister and I could have was one 7-up that we had to share with 2 straws, which caused an argument every time. Whoever got the last sip, the other would scream "she drank it all!!" We had many all day picnics at the park, arriving in the morning and staying till dusk. Love reading all the memories.

They did not get home until about 1945. I have written a book about the Fifth Army and Louisville's Laban Jackson, who worked for and knew Gen Patton and Gen Clark and their wives. Labe was HQ Commandant. for both. I did not learn about pizza from my research, but from my trips to Schenectady, NY in the 1950's, where every other person spoke some kind of Italian and every person ate pizza. Anyway, soldiers were said to have brought back pizza from Italy and Sicily. So there are those of us who recall Louisville and think good German apfelstrudel (strudel mit apples) was the nectar of the gods and there are those who remember Louisville for its pizza parlors. The former group seems to be older, and when it comes to nostalgia, age helps. I, for one, chose to clog my arteries mit apfelstrudel.

    1. Re: [KYJEFFER] Bread, Milk and Fruit
    2. Yes, Mario's!!! Great Pizza. And the Vogue Theatre! For those of you familiar with St. Matthews, renovation of the strip center where the Vogue Theatre was is almost complete. Growing up in the St. Matthews area, the Vogue was the place to be on the weekends. My husband says the best thing to do was to buy your candy at Taylor Drugs, 6 for a $1.00 and then go to the movie. Instead of paying those high prices of 25¢ each. The theatre itself is gone but they've retained the sign. It looks great and the Ice Cream and Pie Kitchen is doing a great business. Cheers, Laura
