Probably did, and I wasn't trying to argue. I know they spent a long time clearing and getting the roadway ready before they ever started paving. And, they spent years talking about it before they ever did anything. I was eager for this to happen because it brought a paved road two miles closer to my parents farm. By the time it was finally finished, however, I had graduated from PJC and was living in Dallas. ----- Original Message ----- From: <MGShelby36@aol.com> To: <txredriv@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2007 5:25 PM Subject: Re: [TXREDRIV] Not Gena.

This probably started over something I wrote in. However, the question I asked to start with was did anyone know the difference in the mileage from Clarksville to Paris over the old road, rather than the new road. I don't know for sure how it changed to " WHEN" the road was built,because that was not my original question.
