Subject: RE: Origin Of John Henry--part TWO
My cousin, John Henry, died last fall. He had been a D.J. in the Tulsa area for many years. On Sunday nights, he had his "John Henry's Smokehouse Blues" program for years. The song "John Henry" was often a topic of questions by his listeners, and cousin Johnny was always seeking info. He also looked for the grave and talked to locals of various places who claimed they knew him, & where it was. - Kaleea

Do you know where he looked for John Henry's grave?
