"just build me a house by the side of the road, and let me be a friend to man" "let those great among you be your servant." (somewhere in the bible). I commend you!

It dates from the early settlement of Ala. and their are various tales about the origin of its name. You will find the designation "Burnt Corn" on the white census scheduled up to and through 1860. I believe that for at least 1850 & 1860 there are SEPARATE slave schedules which are listed by the owner's names. Yr. Obt. Svt., D. A.
