GUEST,John Garst	Origin Of John Henry--part TWO (241* d)	RE: Origin Of John Henry--part TWO	26 Oct 06
Examining Scott Nelson's evidence for John W. Henry as the legendary steel driver and Lewis Tunnel, Virginia, as the place led me to a better appreciation of the evidence for John Henry Dabney and Oak/Coosa Tunnels, Alabama. The Virginia evidence is nearly nonexistent, as I have noted previously. The Alabama evidence is circumstantial but very coherent and amazingly detailed. Let me put the question in the negative: If John Henry were not at Dunnavant, Alabama, in 1887, how would you explain away, rationally, all the testimony, documentation of related matters, and song-fragment evidence? I think you'd have a hard time!
