Storm sight brings back memories of Russell Co., Damron's Creek A LONGING FOR HOME: Melissa G. Rexroat Craigmiles lived near Poplar Grove Road. Sight of downed power lines, big tree down on the Cunningham Place brings back memories of her family, and her dad, Oris Rexroat -'He was a darling of a man, she says - and she remembers that the big tree uprooted was likely at least a century old. The image rekindled a dream to own another farm on Damron's Creek Road, the spectacularly scenic byway between the Dunnville Road in Adair County and the North US 127 area of Russell County, KY, to be back among her beloved extended family of Coopers, Rexroats, Tillers, Foleys and Scaleses. 'I really miss Russell Springs so much,' she says. There's a plea for more photos from the storm. We hope readers will share them. CM's additional photos, this morning, are limited. -EW By Melissa G Rexroat-Craigmiles Hello Mr Waggener. I read this column in the Columbia site newspaper on line every day. I cried when I saw this photo. I lived across the road from the house at the crest of the hill as it turns into new Poplar Grove Road. I lived there in 1979 -1980 with my maternal grandmother Flossie Foley. She lived in the first house off north 127 and Webbs Crossroads. She died when I was 13 and I lived with her then. In 1980 I attended Russell County Elementary 7th and 8th grade. My dad is buried farther out that road on Damrons Creek Road at Mount Calvary Baptist Church.
