Verified evidence record from Love & Whiskey. This record describes the source evidence without treating the author’s historical claim as an independently inspected primary record.

Evidence

Weaver synthesizes a Tennessee Historical Quarterly article, a Frank Bobo letter, a 2001 Brown-Forman report, and later corporate statements as support for Nearest Green serving as Dan Call’s head stiller and teaching Jack Daniel whiskey-making.

Context

The source chain mixes secondary history, corporate records, retrospective description, and later acknowledgment.

Research annotation

The convergence matters, but each underlying document must be inspected; occupational titles may be retrospective and no appointment or payroll record is presented here.
