A friend tells me that garden lots were close to the river and not to be > built on. Henny I too am interested in those garden lots. My great-grandmother, Malinda Wise, bought one of them after her husband died. She lived on a farm with her nine children in Clay Township about 5-6 miles south of Gallipolis. I wondered if they were used commercially to grow and sell produce. She eventually had the property seized in a lawsuit to a Maria Long. Neil E. Folsom, CA
