Not Related, But Keep Digging

  • Friday, July 12, 2024

I've been asked if there's any relation to the Christopher Washington in the fentanyl charge story on the Chattanoogan and my family. There are only two Washingtons living in the Chattanooga area who are related to one another, and they're both in their '70s. Hello. Any others are well scattered across the country and also into other countries. 

Stop asking but keep digging. You might get lucky and hit pay dirt. Digging up some old, long lost distant relative even we never knew existed. 

Got to nip it in the bud before it takes sprout and multiplies.
