Cubby, I got this from a friend that wants to remain incognito.
the slewfoot I was talking about is,
Braxton (Slewfoot) Horton
He is Shermon's older bro.
There was another older bro, Robert
They lived on Georgia Ave.
Braxton married Earlyne Lloyd but it didn't last.
Hope this along with Jimmy's info will clear up my Slewfoot. MVB ES
FULL name: HENRY Braxton "Slewfoot" Horton. He doesn't like to be called "Braxton" or "Brack" anymore, but I have a special dispensation to call him "Slewfoot." LOL
I chatted with them at your reunion, Jimmy, and I was so embarassed that all I knew him by was "Slew foot". Sort of wanted to ask him when he got a name other than that. I do believe he told me he worked with some drum corps through the years, maybe instructing or something. His senior year was my first year in the band so I think I was surprised that he remembered me.
That being the case, Marilyn, he PROBABLY either had a "thing" for you, or else he actually remembered you because of Patsy.
He certainly could have worked with some sort of drum corps on the side. I just don't remember his talking about that. The guy was/is very talented. He and I made it into the Acapella Choir in the ninth grade, which was a bit unusual at the time, and we were in The Four Mugs just after the Billy Todd era. Sang with Billy a few times on the side, too. Slew was a great "top tenor."
Bobby, E.S. informed me that E.S. was his initials. A few of his nicknames were F.M. by the football players. Lathan called him E.A., his mother called him high pockets (she was proud of his height)one of my brothers called him easy s, at work he was called a lot of nicknames, heavy, undertaker, hollywood,& S.,girls softball team called him Mr. G and the grandkids call him G and G-man.
