Meridith Coleman Anding, Jr., was the son of Meridith Coleman Anding, Sr., and Nellie Marshall. He was my mother's second cousin once removed.
Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

When we lived in Simpson county, we used to go to the main library in Jackson sometimes. So very thankful that the Tugaloo Nine forced the library to open for all of us.
I can't imagine denying any one access to a library, but I know this and many other terrible things were forbidden. Reading and having access to knowledge are invaluable. I'm thankful for those who worked so courageously - and still continue to do so.
The main library was one of our favorites to visit. Thankful.
Yes, thankful for warriors of "good trouble."
