About

I am a native son of Kansas plus a husband and father. I am also a writer, taphophile and amateur historian involving Kansas history, one-room schoolhouses, old houses and ghost towns. I also like to read and watch television.

Tauy [toi] 1. A creek in Franklin and Douglas County, Kansas; 2. Nickname for John Tecumseh Jones (1800-1872); 3. A blog featuring writing, history and a sprinkling of pop culture.
