Notes for J
OHN ARTHUR WITHERSPOON:The third child of Theodore Roosevelt Witherspoon and Alice Ruth Melton, John Witherspoon was born in Greenville, MS, and lived as a boy in Swiftwater, MS, outside of Greenville. He went to Riverside High School during his senior year and met Polly Wrenn. He joined the Mississippi National Guard after junior college taking Auto Mechanics. During his time in the Guard, he was a tank mechanic and served during the Camille hurricane in 1969, in Biloxi, MS. Also, during his time in the Guard, he started working as an apprentice machinist, which later became his lifelong career.
John and wife of 33 years, Polly Marie Wrenn, have four children: Michael, Joseph, Stacy, and Melissa (in that order). As of 19-March-1999, they have five grandchildren and one due at the end of the year. They lived in Greenville, MS, until 1976, when they moved their (at that time) three children to Lake Charles, LA. The reason for the move was a machinist job working for Earl Thrift at Thrift's Ship Building in Carlys, LA.
