Saltville - Automobile Outing 1912656 viewsTHIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF THE PICTURES GIVEN TO ME IN THE LATE 1960s BY MY NEIGHBOR, LULA SHANNON. SHE IS THE LADY SITTING ON THE LEFT. IN 1969 SHE WAS 80 YEARS OLD. I HAVE SEEN OTHER PICTURES WITH HER IN THEM WHERE DR. EARLY WAS MENTIONED AS BEING IN THE PICTURE WITHOUT SPECIFIC IDENTIFICATION. COULD THIS BE HIM DRIVING? WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHAT THAT OLD CAR IS.
THE PICTURE APPEARS TO BE IN THE AREA OF THE OLD CHATHAM HILL DAM WHERE THE ROAD CROSSES THE RIVER JUST BELOW WHERE THE DAM WAS LOCATED.
THE SHANNONS LIVED IN THE CHATHAM HILL AREA BEFORE MOVING TO SALTVILLE WHEN LULA AND HER BROTHER DOUG WERE VERY YOUNG. Courtesy of Don Smith dsmith1043@comcast.net

Foster Falls - Brick Church642 viewsTwo churches mentioned in Hannah Walton Sanders' Civil War era diary @ http://home.alltel.net/cjwalker/
A sign at the Old Brick Church states that the church was established in 1890, but that conflicts with her diary. I believe the congregation was established in 1890, but the building is much older and was more of a meeting house before being organized as a church.
Hannah Walton Sanders is connected with the Walton family for whom Walton's Furnace was named. Walton Furnace is located within a few hundred yards of Sanders Mine Road at it's intersection with Walton Furnace Road. Sander's Mine was operated by her husband.
