“My grandpa on my mommy's side was named Louis Isaacs. He lived on this road out here and he was a blacksmith. At that particular time, why, they had steers, they're cattle, you know. They plowed steers, and he was a blacksmith and he put shoes on the people's steers and mules. He was a very good blacksmith. I don't know, I believe that he was the best. The best that I can figure that he was the daddy of twenty-one children…. he's married. He had two women. My grandmother, she was a Russell. So, he married and had a whole bunch of children and she died, then he had another big bunch of children. And they was all musicians. They could play music. They could dance, and he had dances. You'd see a guy and moonshine at the top of the field of corn, and he'd tell the people, "When you get to the top, you can drink it." So we had moonshine, he had moonshine. And they'd dance all night.”
