Lately, I've been troubled imagining the world my granddaughters, Natalie and Emmalyn, will live in as time elapses. This week the world's news seems overwhelming. There are reports of unknown flying objects above our skies. An account of hazardous materials spilling into the river near East Palestine, Ohio, with a consequential black cloud hovering over its skies, resulting from a sabotaged train wreck. There are multiple reports surrounding the ongoing war in Ukraine against Russia. An onslaught of murder from battles created by American politicians to cover up their unscrupulous dealings, laundering of their dirty money, and the bioweapons created in Ukrainian labs at their behest. It's also been hard to escape the endless accounts of sudden death victims from the bioweapons unleashed upon the naive who foolishly and willingly took the jab the drug companies openly admitted were tested only on five lab rats. And, of course, there is the in-sync melody of the globalist boasting publically to media outlets about their goals of world depopulation and one world government. The insanity never seems to end with the inclusion of abuse of the English language from those suffering from mental illnesses who insist on blurring the lines of male vs. female and their misuse of inapplicable pronouns. I ask myself these questions. Will my granddaughters be allotted innocent childhoods and the chance to plot and plan their dreams of becoming equestrian veterinarians? Will their world of horseback riding lessons and competitions continue? Will they be able to keep living in their perfect world with two devoted and loving parents and living in their picturesque dream home? Will they become examples for their future children, and will my great-grandchildren get to live the same quaint, innocent, protective lives their parents are gifted? Childhoods lived similarly to the one my distant cousin Pauline Acklen Landis lived over a hundred years ago. Here is her story!
Pauline Acklen Landis was born on November 4, 1920, in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee [1-8]. She was the youngest of two children born to Robert Edward Landis (May 18, 1895-December 21, 1972) and Pauline Acklen (January 28, 1897) [1-23]. Besides Pauline, the couple had an older son, Robert Livingston Landis, born on April 9, 1917 [1-23]. As a newborn and young child, Pauline spent her first four years growing up in Nashville before moving to Detroit, Michigan, with her parents [24-26]. However, six years later, in October 1931, when Pauline was approximately ten years old, her parents relocated their family back to Nashville, where Pauline received the bulk of her education before graduating from West End High School's first class in 1938 [24-27]. As a young child, playing an early role in her community, Pauline belonged to patriotic clubs John Paul Jones-Children of the American Revolution and the David Crockett Society, C.A.R.[28-29].
As a descendant of Nashville's prominence, maternal great-grandparents Joseph Alexander Smith Acklen and Adelicia Hayes Cheatham, and paternal great-grandparents Major Absalom Lowe Landis and Nancy Tannehill Carter, Pauline was well known in local social circles [1]. However, Pauline's popularity stretched beyond her inherited lineage [30-44]. And so, beginning at three years old, she began making a name for herself based on her success in the equestrian arena [30-44]. On the back of "Lady Tennessee," her beloved five-gaited horse, Pauline's name became synonymous with winning blue ribbons in competitions throughout Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, and even New York [30-44]. With her mother's guidance and instruction, also an accomplished equestrian, headlines throughout announced Pauline's successes boasting such headlines as "Miss Pauline Landis Winner In Horse Shows," "Lady Tennessee Opens 1936," "Nashville Girl Wins Honors At Greenville," and "Miss Landis Returns From Lexington Show Wins Four Ribbons[30-44] ."
After graduating High School, Pauline followed family tradition and attended Vanderbilt University [45-47]. While in attendance, she was a member of the Theta Phi sorority and Vice President of the Nashville Junior Riding Club [45-47]. But while attending Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Pauline met another attendee who would begin the next phase of her life [45-47]. And on May 28, 1939, to the surprise of many, she married William Rife Wade in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee [45-47]. Born October 12, 1918, in Vicksburg, Warren County, Tennessee, Rife was the son of William Rife Wade, Sr. (April 18, 1892-February 4, 1969) and Lillian Steiner Caffee (January 6, 1899-October 13, 1970) [48-71]. As a talented football player at Vanderbilt University, Rife had a potentially promising career in the professional football arena [48-71]. A graduate of the Columbia Military Academy, Rife was ruggedly handsome, and he and Pauline made a striking couple [48-71]. But unfortunately, a marriage with two stars shining in the universe formed a formula of failure, and on March 3, 1940, their marriage ended in divorce [72].
Three months after ending her marriage with Rife, Pauline quickly and eagerly remarried Ewing Ambrose Grizzard Jr. [73-76]. Dressed in a navy blue chiffon dress with her brother escorting her down the aisle, Pauline married Ewing in a private ceremony with only their immediate family and a few select friends present to witness their union on June 4, 1940, in Nashville at her mother's home [73-76]. Born on October 29, 1915, in Nashville, Ewing was the son of Ewing Ambrose Grizzard, Sr. (March 27, 1888-October 3, 1965) and Helen Hooper Cartwright (June 13, 1886-December 7, 1963) [77-98]. A graduate of Hume-Fogg High School, Ewing had a common interest with Pauline and her passion for horses [99-104]. Like Pauline, Ewing was also an accomplished equestrian who enjoyed vying for his portion of blue ribbons in the same horse competitions in which Pauline competed [101-104].
After honeymooning in Williamsburg and Jamestown, Virginia, Pauline and Ewing made their home with Pauline's mother [75-76]. While Ewing worked on his father's farm, Pauline continued to train and show horses [101, 105-106]. Five years after exchanging their vows, they expanded their family to include a daughter, Linda Landis Grizzard, born June 15, 1945, in Nashville [107-115]. Three years later, they added a son to their blissful world, Robert Allen Grizzard, born November 29, 1948 [111-123]. But sadly, their little boy wasn't born into the world perfect as most couples dream their children to be. Born prematurely, Robert was mentally challenged and suffered from vascular lesions that affected his central nervous system [111-123]. God's will had destined Robert's life on earth to be short, and on July 24, 1964, at fifteen, Robert's struggle ended [111-123]. It ended after spending four years, ten months, and twenty days of his life locked away in Clover Bottom Development Center, an asylum designed in 1923 specifically for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities [120-124].
For 21 years, horses were a fundamental part of Pauline's life [125]. When those days faded from her present, Pauline immersed herself in other activities, making notable contributions to her community [125]. She was a member of the Historic Franklin Presbyterian Church, Daughters of the American Revolution, National Society Daughters of Colonial Dames, National Society Daughters of Barons of Runnemede, Belmont Mansion Association, Ladies Hermitage Association, and the Centennial Club [125]. While Pauline took care of their home and raised their children, Ewing provided support by working in the oil and gas industry [111-115].
On April 30, 1983, in Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee, Pauline lost Ewing after twenty-seven years of marriage [77, 125]. He died at the age of sixty-seven [77, 125]. Seventeen years later, on February 16, 2000, Pauline died when she was seventy-nine [1, 126-127]. Both were buried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee [1, 77, 125-127]. Pauline's first husband, Rife, died at eighty-nine on June 11, 2008, in Jackson, Hinds County, Mississippi [48-52]. His interment is in Lakewood Memorial Park in Jackson [48-52].
When our present becomes history, it is unlikely to be relayed with truthfulness. For once, though, the avid news junkies of CNN and Fox will be on the same side of sinister insanity, promoting Ukraine as the guardians of light. And while, of course, depicting Russia as the aggressor of evil and darkness. However, neither explication will be correct in its narrative. The soldiers from both sides are evil in their ravage and barbaric assaults upon one another. Neither side is guilty. Nor is either side innocent. Both sides are only pawns in a cruel chess game managed by the globalists for world depopulation. And both sides are being used by their leaders for self-promotion and gain. But hopefully, my granddaughters will know this era as one of all nations being on the "brink" of World War III and not one notable for millions of innocent lives killed during World War III. A veil of duplicity exists among many American citizens. They are either woefully stupid or blindly benighted. In either scenario, the conclusion will be the same. An end to American sovereignty and the world as we know it. And the ceasing of innocent childhoods for my granddaughters Natalie and Emmalyn without a chance to dream of horses and hay. Completion of their stories a century later detailing their lives spent on the backs of one of nature's beauties with stethoscopes wrapped around their white coats donned on as equestrian veterinarians. Stories about two lives that were as sweet and simple as Pauline's story a hundred years before their parents dreamed of their existence.

This blog was created for my granddaughters, Natalie Elizabeth and Emmalyn Rose Herron, to share the experiences of me and Mitch, along with our viewpoints on politics, religion, and the history we are creating. I respectfully understand that you may not always agree with our perspectives. We want to teach the two of them our history, their family history, and American history, so they, too, will learn to question with boldness! Should you disagree with our viewpoints, please keep your negative commentary in your mind. This blog may not be for you.
