Any vets residing in the Wayne County Kentucky area please this on to members of the Bell clan. I recall that one uncle on my grandad's side was named Ira Bell and he owned a Chevy dealership. I believe he was also the county superintendant of schools at one point in time. Another uncle on my grandma's side was a Baldwin. I believe he was assigned to the KY State Police as a Major or Colonel. I recall that he slipped on ice and injured his head, so he might have retired earlier than he normally would have. Any help any KY vet can give me in passing this on will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Bill Bell
