My father, John McNair, son of James Sidney and Mary Alice Parrish, grew up in Wrens, Ga. on a farm. He was seven years old when his father died. His brother Lee, then became head of household. John moved to Gainesville, FL after finishing school. He received a class ring, however, don't believe he graduated. Would love to know if he did or did ot, in fact, graduate. His sister,Juanita had married Edward Ivy and moved to Gainesville, FL. John went to work at a restaurant run by them close to the train track, downtown. Also, brother, Robert Lee, moved to Gainesville. He worked for the Ice Plant. Mary Alice, was brought to live with Juanita and Ed Ivy from
Georgia where she had been institutonalized because of menopausal problems.
