GUEST,John Garst	Origin Of John Henry--part TWO (241* d)	RE: Origin Of John Henry--part TWO	08 Apr 09
There is a little to add to my preceding post, about Gov. MacCorkle and the N & W. The N & W came into existence in 1881, when the Atlantic, Mississippi & Ohio was renamed by new owners. Thus, it is evident that Gov. MacCorkle thought that John Henry/Hardy worked on the N & W well after the boring of Big Bend Tunnel in 1869-72. The first extension of the N & W, to Bluefield, WV, was completed in 1883. The next, the Clinch Valley Extension, was built 1887-1890, as noted earlier.
