Description
ECHOES FROM THE PAST is the personal memoir of John L. Kilgore Sr. that details his adventures in amateur genealogical research. While it was an interest for many, John was prompted back in 1987 to get serious about uncovering his roots. Armed with old, faded pictures, newspaper clippings, the recollection of family members, and aided by his wife Mary Jane, he set out on a journey that brought him face to face with long-separated kin and country music legends like June Carter Cash, Johnny Cash, Merle Kilgore, Hank Williams Jr., and more. Part travelogue and history, ECHOES FROM THE PAST is also a tribute to family heritage and the unexpected discoveries that make it so important to remember those who've come before and to preserve the story for future generations.
