    • Holcombe Lammon, Sr. worked in sawmills most of his life as superintendent. During WW II he worked in Maritime Shipyard in Mobile, AL., in the "Mold Loft" where the templates for battleships were made. His first son, Holcombe Lammon, Jr. was also a woodcraftsman and worked in the same place as his father during WW II until he entered the Merchant Marine. His ship was torpedoed near Murmansk, Russia. He served as Boatswain and was cited for his heroic actions trying to build life rafts right until the time the ship went down. He was lost with the ship. Allen McKee Lammon, second son of Holcombe Lammon, Sr., was also aboard this ship. He was rescued and worked as a construction engineer until his death.
