The only thing I know about a little town I grew up in, (Yoder, Indiana) had a few different names and one was Sheridan, I believe). The WCTU (WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPERANCE UNION) was real active there because there were 13 saloons all at once. I'm thinking the empty lots in the town are where the bars were. LOL!

My brother, an electrical engineer, worked on the first MOON ROVER that is still resting on the Moon as I write.

I live in the Shreveport -Bossier City area of Louisiana and we are now called the Hollywood of the south because of all the movies that are made here.
