Minor Facts

Yes, it is mildly interesting to learn of the existence of Paul T. Barth, a native of Atlanta, Ga., who with his wife Hattie founded in 1921 the Association of Pentecostal Assemblies. He died in 1941 and was not in any way related to my great-grandfather, David A. Barth, who was born in Ohio, at least not that I know of. Maybe if you could track all the Barths in the USA back to Germany of the Middle Ages you could find some connection but it is not available here in the U.S., at least not that we know of. Barth founded a Bible college in Atlanta that at one time merged with Southeastern, which was founded in Alabama, but later moved to Lakeland, Florida. Oh, I didn't know that. Anyway, not being a Southeastern grad I nevertheless never set foot in the Beulah Heights school either. We really are not very interested in all these Deep South connections, having gladly delivered or heard that obnoxious Barbara Miller went to the airport, inspiring great relief at the thought of never having to listen to her nonsensical babbling ever again in this lifetime.
