Yes, he's great. I esp love the River Jordan book. I met him 2 summers ago when we went to a family reunion and found out we were cousins. I stayed with him and his wife this summer for 5 days. You couldn't meet a nicer couple. And he is so very knowledgeable. He's doing alot of work to get OH historical markers put in.
