Sherrie:

Thanks for that page. Melt Lewis Perkins at the Bon Jellico community
was my Grand uncle. His wife was Frances Meadows and his children are
my 1st cousins once removed. Can you tell me if any of them are alive
and how I can contact them? I remember Claud and Cecil but not the
others.

Thanks,

Steven C. Perkins
