Bill, I still have not received the two emails I posted on the forum. Apparently they went out but for some reason I never received them back. I have added index to all the surnames in the Floyd obits as well as links to some other sites. You may be interested in visiting the WWII Victory museum site. It also has a museum of cedicated to auto racing. The museums are sponsored by dvk foundatio, the owner of the Auburn, Chord, Dusenburg museum in Auburn, Indiana. If you are ever in the area that museum is the first place to go for a racing buff. The Photo of the Grub man was from my mother's collection. He was from Floyd or maybe Franklin Co., since mother grew up in the Copper Hill area near Franklin county. Mother did not remember his name or else I did not record it. She talked about him as being the man without a nose. ---------------- Jack, I recieved the link also. I spent time going thru some of it. The picture of the Grub man was interesting. When I was teaching at Floyd there was a young man named Darian Grub, who was a student there. Darian favors this Grub quite a bit. Was this Grub from Floyd? After getting his engineering degree from VT he went to work for Rick Hendricks racing. Two years ago he was the substitute crew chief for Jimmy Johnson when Johnson won the Daytona 500. This year he is the crew chief for Tony Stewart and Stewart is leading the point standings and just won the July 4th race at Daytona. All of you race fans out there who want to support a good ole Floyd County boy ,root for Tony and his crew. -- Jack Spangler Ellicott City, MD

Jack, I have lived in the Copper Hill area for most of my 62 years and when I was growing up I can remember hearing about someone by the name of "Fuzzy" Grub. It's funny how some names always stick in your mind. I'll ask around to some of the old timers and see if they remember. The biggest problem is that most of the old timers , still living around here , are not much older then me. Thanks Jack and I'll let you know if I come up with someone who remembers Fuzzy.
