    3. Just wanted to point out to everyone Mrs. Altheia Pope who lived to be 107 years old! Any relatives of hers on the list? Don't be embarrassed to tell us you are also over 100 years! We'll understand it just runs in the family! http://www.rootsweb.com/~tngibson/Illustrated/Page110bw.jpg I have a 105 yr. old great aunt in Arizona who is still going strong! She still crotchet's afghans, reads constantly, but gave up quilt making a couple years back. On that same page it mentions that Rev. A.J. Fletcher of Rutherford is still living and is the oldest person in the county. He would have been ca 73 yrs. old. My great-grandfather, William Thomas Wilson recorded that he sold a bible to an A.J. Fletcher ca 1876 in Rutherford, TN. Wonder if this is the same Fletcher? Anyone related to A.J. Fletcher? I'm still always trying to track down one of these bibles that my grgrandfather was selling there. Here's my link for the bible page: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~rtr89/Wilson/prospectus.htm I'm having too much fun reading Illustrated and hope the rest of you are enjoying it as much as I am! A HUGE thanks to all the transcribers on the project! THANKS! Vicki Gibson Co. TN CC PS Still anxious to hear any success stories from Illustrated! Send them on!
