1/25/2015 Making progress collecting photos and data for Jacob and Harriet Fisher King's album. Kathy Orta included in her core kit, the word Remember. I can not decide if that will be the name of the album or something else. The album will hold more than Jacob and Harriet. The album is so large I will continue with Dorothy Viola Vivian King Webb (daughter of Jacob and Harriet) and then Elmer Columbus Webb (son of D. Viola). This is going to be a great album for Jacob is a very colorful person. If I was talented, I would write a book using him as the main character. He fought with the NC 25th Reg, CSA through some of the bloodiest battles of the war; after the war, he moved his family to Arkansas. He became licensed as a teacher and music teacher, became a Baptist leader, helping to organize several churches. He was an organizing member of the Free Masons in Stone co. His four sons became: lawyer, teacher, Baptist minister and physician. His younger daughters attended two year Mountain Home College. All of this in a very poor mountainous region of the Ozark Mountains.
