Notes
for THOMAS HERSCHELL PARKERSON: I called Mr. Parkserson "Grandpa". Grandmother
married him when I was about 6 or 7 year old, and he quickly became my
grandpa. He was half indian and had worked on the railroad. We used to
take long walks together, and he let play with his tools. He gave me a
barlow pocket knife which I still have today.
