    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Wilson, Beck Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/1YB.2ACI/876.1 Message Board Post: Thank you for presenting that wonderful article. If you would be willing to email me a copy of Sarah Fox's picture, I would love that. My reason is more history and less family on this one. When my father first went into the Navy (the 1950's) he acquired a souvenir coin struck from the Constitution which he carried on his travels to duty stations all over the world. On the coin is a depiction of the Constition with at full sail. I loved looking at the coin as a child and have it now. I printed out your transcription (thank you!) and forwarded it to my father. His grandfather and great grandfather came from Harrison County and I just think it is kind of poetic that a descendant of folks from Harrison County helped the Constitution continue its travels long after it was decommissioned and struck for parts. I am: kjwilli5@cox.net Thank you!
