I was curious, I havent seen my grandfather and his siblings names anywhere, except a story on Johnnie and his hand crafted canes. I am fortunate enough to own 2 of his walking canes. All 3 have passed as of jan 2008. My Grandpa who was the eldes lived the longest. He and Johnnie died just at one year apart. They are both burried in Clayton. Thier parents were John Gordon Eller and Lear Addis Eller. Grandma Eller (Lear) lived to be 99. Also, Johnnie received a purple heart while being on a ship in Pearl Harbor.
This is a very interesting but very secluded family. They lived on Persimmon Mountain Clayton, GA. where many are burried. Grandma Eller was a good bit younger than John Gordon and he died in or around the 1930's.
As far as Grandpa says, his father had a heart attack, Johnnie died of the same abd Grandpa of several afflictions due to age. There is a history of heart conditions with in the family.
If ANYONE has info, I would greatly appreciate it.
