Oh Thank you Ann...Time didn't permit me to go to Long Jerry's grave in
Emmalina.
I have a hard enough time getting my husband to take me to Hazard for the
Combs Reunion much less running around in that August heat heaven forbid!!
You have me wondering about the land part. I know he lived around Vicco
which isn't too far from Emmalina. And this part of Knott County was Perry
before Knott was made into a county.
Thank you for the discription, and I do want to see it this next August.
