Monday, December 17 - Roots

We made a quick trip to visit Jerry's mom in Mississippi to see her and Jerry's sister and family, who were visiting. While there we made a trip to some land the family calls " The Old Place." Andrew Jackson marched through this land on his way to the Battle of New Orleans.


The road in.

What's left of the house Jerry's dad grew up in

It's so neat the house is still there! I have a picture of the house Robert's grandmother and great-aunt grew up in....it brings that era much closer than I usually think of it!

I love the history in this set of photos, Becky. Amazing that the house is still standing at all...
