It looks like I could find the family in Virginia, Tennessee, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, but not Georgia (as I hoped).Kathy Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09417754385375586302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791995084033713889.post-24914545687781092062011-03-28T03:01:21.737-07:002011-03-28T03:01:21.737-07:00Thanks Kathy!

We were speculating as to whether or not Bird Holland could have been in Georgia first. The Georgia Hollands are a really interesting group, too. I'll have to tell them about your blog.Kathy Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09417754385375586302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791995084033713889.post-58255131988206607972011-03-22T23:05:31.486-07:002011-03-22T23:05:31.486-07:00Amen to that Heather.

I think people are hungry for this kind of information, even though the 54th was in a movie. No comments on the blog though, which is odd.Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791995084033713889.post-75332277584717801272011-03-22T18:01:22.757-07:002011-03-22T18:01:22.757-07:00I love it Heather, and also its great to get the w...I love it Heather, and also its great to get the word out about such brave soldiers..
