While searching for something else, found this piece of information that I thought the list might be interested in. >From The Cumberland Gap Progress April 18,1888 During the past year $93,000 has been realized from cabbage shipped from Wythe Co, Virginia in car lots alone. In addition, it is estimated that the railroads realized about $24,000 from freight on these cabbage. That's a lot of "green" be it cabbage or cash. Gayle
