Down in Wonderful Jacksonville
The Jacksonville Historical Society is in search of any information about a song that was sung on a PBS program “Your Town and Mine” in the 1960s. According to Cynthia Lynn Conner, 3rd graders at the Chapell School sung the song at school.
It is believed to have some connection to Jacksonville University. Elizabeth Barrs Howard noted in Facebook comments that Margaret Vason Forester might know something as the host of the program. Her maiden name at that time was Margaret Bloom. The HS indicates that she donated this score sheet to the Historical Society.
‘Anyone out there know anything of this song about “Wonderful Jacksonville” sheet of music or the program? We would love to shed a little sunshine in the “land of sunshine”.
See you tomorrow,
