There is a story about Seven Brothers (Morris) from Denmark, AR who served in the military, and all returned home. As of year 2000 only 3 survive. Maybe one of them died recently.

Never heard of it. Would it possibly be the same as Palarm? Thats sounds fairly Italian and should rougly fit the location. Seems plausible that at one time it might have been locally called Little Italy by non-Italians...assuming of course it actually was settled by Italians.
