Subject: TYSON'S 1960 era
Query: I am womdering if you can find out for me if a John S. Tyson was living in the Orlando area at this time. I know that one of his brothers (my grandpa) Noah Tyson was living in the area as we lived right down the road from him. My dad is one of Noah's son's. If I'm not mistaken, we were living on the Windemere Hwy at that time. My dad's name is Bobby Tyson. Anyway, we were living in the Orlando area somewhere around Winter Garden and Windemere. Anything you may have would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,

Subject: Union Soldier in my House???
Query: I just had a brand new house built off of State RD 50 (Colonial RD) and State RD 419 (Chuluota Rd) in South East Orlando (Orange County). I know this may seem like a weird question, but my girlfriend swears she saw a ghost wearing a navy blue military uniform in my house. I did find out that Ft. Christmas is about 5 miles away from my house. I was just wondering if there was any way to dig up more information on this mystery guy and if anybody else has reported any weird supernatural activity in this area. I did print out a list of Confederate and Union Soldiers that died in Orange County but that does not help narrow it down. Any suggestions??? Or is my girlfriend just crazy?Sunday 08/11/2002 5:28:21pm

Subject: Herbert Leon Thompson, Killed in Vietnam
Query: I am Dick Arnold of the 35th Infantry Regiment Association: http://www.cacti35th.org/
We honor those we lost in Vietnam by posting their pictures on our web site. Winter Garden native Herbert Leon Thompson is one such person. His obit says he graduated from Drew High School in 1965. I called Orange County Public Schools and was told Drew is now closed. Does anyone know of any Drew alumni groups or where a 1965 Drew High School yearbook might be located. I struck-out at the library and the Orange County Public Schools.
Herbert was an Afro-American and his parents were Mr and Mrs Robert L Thompson of Winter Garden.
Thanks
