Leslie R. Sapp tells how name of Combest Drive came about

Leslie R. Sapp suggested name to Mary Alexander, to honor the famous thoroughbred jockeys whose family lived there; so it honors historic Combest farm, instead of receiving another neat name his wife suggested for it.

Leslie R Sapp writes:
So sorry to her of the passing of Mr. Jimmy Combest, the family is in our prayers. My name is Leslie Sapp, My wife and I moved on to the farm on or about 2004.. For about the first month we did not even have a address here. Knowing some of the history of the farm when Mary Allender got around to us, the road was named by me as Combest Drive. I think it would be neat to see a plaque telling of the history. My wife still gets a little perturbed about it. She wonted it named after her, Lois Lane. Never thought I would be living in the Tobacco Patch in Joppa.....lol - Leslie R Sapp
