I own an island. Off the coast of Costa Rica.I leased it from the government and spent the last five years setting up a kind of biological preserve down there. Really spectacular. Spared no expense. It makes the one I had in Kenya look like a petting zoo.

I have an old postcard with this photo on it and am a distant relative of two of the players. This town was in northern Indiana and no longer exists, there is a farm there now. The town got it’s name when the “N” word was common. Before the civil war an escaped slave moved onto an island in a swamp that existed then & lived there. I don’t know how long he lived there or what happened to him. Time passed, the swamp was drained & turned into farmland. The area of the island became a town with a post office bearing that name. In time the town died. I don’t know of any other evidence of that town other than this picture.

Correction ~ This town was more likely in Ohio.

I have confirmed that this was near Kenton Ohio. The name was later changed to Island Grove, even later it was changed to Jump because it was considered to have been a jumping off point of the underground railroad.
