Three part series of articles which appeared weekly in the Courier during
Feb 1942
We begin our trip this week just east of Hopewell Church at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Vivian Nations. Mr. Nations brother Buett and family have been
visiting them for several days.
Next, Mrs. Nixon and son live on E.L. Griffin's farm.
Then directly south of the church we see the new home of Mr. and Mrs.
E.L. Griffin that is rapidly nearing completion.
Traveling west again on the gravel road we see Mr. and Mrs. W.L.
Griffin's present home, where they have lived since their home burned last
fall.
I forgot last week on our trip to tell you that Mr. and Mrs. Tom Rowls
live just south of the Watson School and have a son, Buster in the Army. If
I miss someone on our trip remember, I don't intend to, but since this is an
imaginary trip, I may not remember all places, but so far I believe I have
accounted for every home. But I don't know the Lower Heelstring community so
well and may not know the names of all the families.
Going back to Mr. Griffin's we next see Mr. and Mrs. Goeffery Herren's.
Then down the side road south of this place we see several homes, including
Mr. and Mrs. Crawley, Mr.. and Mrs.. Mack Bellah and Mr. and Mrs. Kirby.
Back to the gravel, the farm of Tom Bridges where Mr. and Mrs. Johnny
Johnson live. Next, Mr. and Mrs. O. Lewis farm. Mrs. Lewis has been
seriously ill for some time and at this time we would like to wish her
better health soon.
Up a side road North, lives Freman Pemberton and family and several other
families.
on the gravel again, are Mr. and Mrs. Ton Curtis then Mr. and Mrs. Ed
Jackson and South of the school Hubert Guther's home. His mother has been
seriously ill for a long time and we hope she is improving.
That is the third installment. I do not have the first.
