[QUOTE="Angus Cowman, post: 687283, member: 8829"] I remember them well and have been to their farm a few times when I was a kid my older brothers used to go down there and listen to the OMD play sometimes I went there with a friend of ours that logged with mules and he would take his mules to these guys when they needed a rest from dragging logs and these guys would use them and get them freshened back up so he could log with them it was like going back in time 50-100 yrs when you went to their place just real simple honest hardworking folks I remember when they got attacked, there was a community uproar about it because everybody liked these guys I don't remember who done it but it was basically some local lowlife druggies who thought these old men were rich and beleive me they weren't Back when I was a kid there used to be several people like them around our neck of the woods and the further south you got in Missouri the more there were especially in Douglas, Ozark, Howell, Oregon ,Shannon and Texas counties i met a man a couple yrs ago that was in his early 90s who had only been to Springfield once in his life and that was by train when he was 13, There are several people in Ozark and Douglas county that have never been over 50 miles from home [/QUOTE]
