The gentleman listed as #7, Marion Long, was my G. Grandfather and he was a Pvt. in the MO. Cavalry. Dr. Troy Coffman was also a cousin of mine.

I have been retired from school after 27 years and love to work outside but still like to go to school to substitute. My husband and I have been married for almost 49 years. I like to stay busy.

I love antique photographs. In addition to sharing old photos of my family, I am also going through my collection of "antique store people". They've been sitting in a storage tub in my back room much too long and maybe some of their families will be able to find them here. If I'm able to identify the people in the photo, I upload it not only to AncientFaces, but also to Ancestry, FamilySearch, and Find-A-Grave. If the person in the picture is a military veteran, the photo also goes on Fold3. I figure that the more places I upload these pictures, the greater the chance that a relative will be able to find them.
