Sons of Confederate Veterans

James William Barrow, III, born February 6, 2010

Gentlemen,

Following the example of General John B. Gordon (and General William Dorsey Pender & James Ewell Brown Stuart) yet another GREAT GEORGIAN has entered the world on February 6th!

James William Barrow III (named for the AOT Commander's father) was born at 12:01 am this morning. The new Cadet and CofC member weighs 6 lbs. 6 oz. and is 18 1/2 inches long with blond hair and blue eyes. William is breathing on his own but did have some oxygen issues so is in an incubator to receive some assistance with that but otherwise is robust and healthy.

Cassie is just fine but of course tired as is Kelly. Not one to waste time, Cassie worked on a book review for Confederate Veteran while she was in labor!

I know ya'll join me in our joy for the new Barrow in our midst and happiness for this beautiful family. Thank you all for your prayers and good wishes!

Steve Ritchie,
Commander Indiana Division
& Proud Godfather
