Milas Wishon: This is Milas Monroe Wishon about 1948 with the bellows used by John Wishon in North Carolina and transported to Benton County, AR and then to Newton County.
John Wishon was a blacksmith and so was his son Isaac Coonrod Wishon.
I have a fire place poker made by Isaac Wishon and I have the little shovel that my Grandpa Big Ruby used to take ashes out of the stove and a log from the first house that Isaac built near the Low Gap Spring.
