Question: What is the population of the town where John McGarry grew up ?
Context: Fire in the Hole is themed around the story of Marmaros, an Ozarks hill town.  Marmaros was built near Marvel Cave and is the present day site of the theme park Silver Dollar City.  Marmaros grew out of necessity.  The miners attracted to the mining of guano from the cave along with their families began to grow in number.  The investors designed a town with the intentions of becoming a resort village such as Eureka Springs, Arkansas or Monte Ne, Arkansas.  Investments became substantial and the town’s population grew rapidly. John McGarry is a former guard in the National Football League.

Isiolo is a town in the former Eastern Province, Kenya.  It is situated in the Upper Eastern sub-region, and lies 285 kilometres north of Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya.  The town grew around the local military camps, much of the population being descended from former Somali soldiers who had fought in World War I as well as other Cushitic-speaking pastoral communities and the Ameru community.  The town has an estimated population of 80,000 people, most of them living in the rural outbacks of the District.  There is an increasing urban population in the recent years, especially from as far as Moyale, Marsabit and Mandera.  The Isiolo town is also becoming a centre of interest because of its newly acquired status as a resort city cashing in on the popular Samburu and Shaba Game reserves, which have become preferred destinations after the famed Maasai Mara.  Isiolo lies along the long A2 Road, leading towards Marsabit and Moyale much farther north.  The town is served by Isiolo Airport, which is set to be upgraded to an International Airport to serve tourism and local exports. The history of Atlanta dates back to 1836, when Georgia decided to build a railroad to the U.S. Midwest and a location was chosen to be the line's terminus.  The stake marking the founding of "Terminus" was driven into the ground in 1837 (called the Zero Mile Post).  In 1839, homes and a store were built there and the settlement grew.  Between 1845 and 1854, rail lines arrived from four different directions, and the rapidly growing town quickly became the rail hub for the entire Southern United States.  During the American Civil War, Atlanta, as a distribution hub, became the target of a major Union campaign, and in 1864 Union William Sherman's troops set on fire and destroyed the city's assets and buildings, save churches and hospitals.  After the war the population grew rapidly, as did manufacturing, while the city retained its role as a rail hub.  Coca-Cola was launched here in 1886 and grew into an Atlanta-based world empire.  Electric streetcars arrived in 1889, and the city added new "streetcar suburbs". Audra is a ghost town in Taylor County, Texas.
