Campbell, treasurer of the canal commissioners, laid out the village of "Juliet", a corruption of "Joliet" that was also in use at the time. Just before t ...

It also so happened to be that Ryan Tooker was in the eighth grade at high school when he first joined the lineup. In search of a record deal and more stable lineup, the Tooker brothers ...
