Dear List, Didja ever travel around the county and wonder who lived in that ol' ram shackled house standing out in the middle of the cow pasture? Ever get the urge to stop your car , crawl through the fence and wade through the weeds to take a closer look??? Ever go inside and wonder what their lives must have been like or try to imagine what the house looked like in its heyday?? Ever pass a set of steps in the middle of a pasture with the shadow of a chimney left standing and feel an overwhelming sadness of something lost forever? I do. And because of this Old Settlers now has a new page called Early Homes Of Stone County!! The purpose of this page is to capture the history of our old homes before they are lost forever.
