| Terri Dreffer is the great-great-granddaughter of TWO Medal of Honor Recipients. Jacob Parrott was a Union soldier in the Civil War and was the first person in history to receive the Medal of Honor. Wilson Brown also received the Medal of Honor for the same action. She says, "Though I never heard the story first hand from either of my great-great-grandfathers, I know the facts that have been passed down through the family and have read many accounts of the events that took place during The Great Locomotive Chase." Terri volunteers quite a bit to help in her daughter's elementary school, and is happy to visit other elementary schools to talk about her great-great-grandfathers. (614) 889-4753 | |
