    3. Hi all, Anyone following this thread about moonshine know of any FULTON, KENNADY, McCORD, McFADDEN, McMURTREY, NIX, LEEPER, SCHULTZE, or TIDWELL recipes for moonshine. All these folks lived at some time in the "hills" between NC, SC, VA and KY and TN, and I'd bet three-fourths of them made moonshine.
