If you type in "Bell County" in the search box, a listing of WWII Honor Dead
from Bell co. KY, (as well as Bell co. TX), appear along with the pictures
from mining camps at Four Mile Holler, Cary & Big Jim taken in 1945 that are
mentioned below from the Laurel list. Some of the families pictured are
George Hoskins, Lingar, Eldridge, Hendrickson, Sizemore, etc. Also depicted
are shots of the homes and their interiors, camps, privies, tipples, and
school rooms.
