Hello Jeanne, Thanks a zillion for the names of the people in your photo. Other than the DAVIDSON name, only the JOHNSON surname is very familiar to me, as far as connecting to my family, but I think the JOHNSON clan that is kin is from around the communities of Cunningham and Louise, which are on the other side of the river from Hickory Point and several miles away. My grandfather once lived off Gratton Road, then later lived on Lock B. Road just up the hill from where the old RR bridge was. Later, he lived in Clarksville, but I frequently took him back out to Hickory Point, where he told me many times that the best years of his life were spent. He also took me to the place where he learned to fish as a child, and to the store, which is no longer there, where he would walk to buy a soft drink. That was the store at Hickory Point across from the church at the intersection of what I believe is Bearden Road. My grandfather has family buried in the Cemetery at Bethlehem Methodist Church. His brother is there, buried in an unmarked grave. Thanks again for the information. Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. "Love Your Freedom? Thank A Vet!"
