I remember Charlie Trader well. His father, Dr. Charles Trader, delivered me at the old Peninsula General Hospital as there were very few actual obstetricians in those days and General Practice doctors did just about everything, including making house calls! Charlie had a sister, Donna Jean Trader who was cute as a button and I had the honor of dating her in high school. Ah, those were the days.

Pocomoke Public Eye footnote:
Waterspouts are not too common in our area and a very rare occurrence during winter. We rechecked the date for the above item. It was published in the January 9th edition of the newspaper.

LONG AGO BUT NOT FAR AWAY- THE ORIGINAL INHABITANTS OF OUR SOUTHERN PENINSULA
From a 1951 feature article in the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. The author, Leonora W. Wood, (1892-1989) wrote articles of regional historic interest for Virginia newspapers and authored "Guide To Virginia's Eastern Shore" in 1952. She was an inspiration for the novel "Christy" written by her daughter Catherine Marshall, a well-known author. Mrs. Wood's husband was a minister who had served Holmes Presbyterian Church in Cheriton.
