Book Description
"In the fall of 1997, the members of the Macon County Historical Society and the Genealogical Society decided there was sufficient material to publish another volume of The Heritage of Macon County. Much has happened in the eleven years since the first volume, and many family histories were not yet printed and available to the general public.... All articles were edited in an effort to correct any grammatical and spelling errors. No historical dates or names were changed.".

Book Description
Hanging the Macon County Witch is a true story. The hanging outlined in this book really took place in Lafayette, Tennessee in the late spring of 1845. This bizarre story follows a slave woman named Lize - who claims to be a witch by the way - from the time Wilson Meador purchased her, until the Macon County Sheriff hanged her. This story has several weird twists and turns, including Lize trading her own head to a local doctor for ginger cakes and hard cider. Truth is stranger than fiction and this true story is as strange as they come!

Book Description
CITIZENS OF AMERICA Please consider this: as a nation, we stood by and allowed Troy Davis to be executed within the guidelines of the law; but not considering justice at all. With almost one million petitioners requesting clemency-over fifty members of congress, a former President, members of the jury that convicted and sentenced Troy, his legal team, his family, his church, and Troy-the one official board with the authority to do so ignored the cries of the people that Troy Davis had come to represent, refused to do so, and then put Troy to death. "LAW NOT JUSTICE." What's more, the final hope was not the Supreme Court; no one tried the White House! My request is that you investigate the "Pamela Smart Case" in New York. With her only wrong doing being infidelity (an extramarital affair), she has served over twenty years of her sentence (life without parole) in prison. Governor Cuomo is aware of her case, but has no power or authority to help her. She has no hope of freedom unless YOU help her. If YOU want to be a part of justice for Pamela, call your Federal Congressman (preferably your Senator) and express your opinion. Then write President Obama at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC. 20500, and ask for clemency for Pamela Smart, by President Obama ordering her release from prison, and by commuting her sentence to time served.
