Veterans list update Friday, Nov. 17, 2006

Additions and/or updates were received on 10 more Adair County Veterans yesterday, Thursday, November 16, 2006. Many of the letters are now including much more detail on veterans, which will make the list more valuable for future researchers.

One bit of correspondence deserves note: A veteran was listed twice. The spellings were slightly different, but obviously the same person. He told us how he wanted the entry worded, and that was done.

Feedback: On Rev. Harold Greene Johnson, Sr article

Comments re article by Rev. Joey N Welsh, CM, August 20, 2006: Still learning

Rev. Joey N. Welsh:

I would like to thank you on be half of myself and my family for writing an article on Rev. Harold Greene Johnson, Sr. Reverend Johnson is my Grandfather. I was never able to meet him but I heard few stories about him.

I always wondered about his life as a reverend and as a father. My Grandmother Dorothy Johnson was a wonderful grandmother. She passed away when I was only seven and from what I remember I was only able to see her when I was four or five years old. Once again I would like to thank you for writing this article about Rev. Johnson, my grandfather.

Sincerely,
Jocelyn Johnson
