He died before my mother was born and my guess is that her mother probably wasn't anxious to share that legacy! <br />My cousin said she remembered her grandmother talking about having entertained President Taft in their home. It sounds like he was pretty well connected...that, money and I imagine his colorful charm were the reasons he must have " gotten off fairly easily" !<br />Thank you again!

I remember her very well, she was a real character, as was, it sounds like, her husband J. Tom! <br />Thank you so much for your gift of knowledge, I'm embarrassed to say I know so little about my family history. I wish I had paid more attention to my grandmother Nellie and her sister Lottie's old stories about growing up in Bowling Green. <br />J. Tom Doores had a very interesting and varied life ! ( I love the political information, now I understand where I came from! )<br />Thank you again! I have shared this with my mother , my children and my cousin! We are all grateful for your article !
