Since Thomas Climer and family lived at or around Difficult then would that not make going to the Funns Branch area not very far. That make more since about James and Viola knowing each other. I know that I can get to the old Hughes/Thomas home place by going to Gladdice and turning and going across the bridge and back a gravel road. When I was small we use to take Monk Lee back in there to go home. Some our family still own property there in that area. Jeannie
