This tree planted October 1989 to commemorate 100 years
John Wesley Prickett Family owning this land.
Prickett
Homestead - Mr. Prickett owned the Prickett Dairy Farm and the property
at covered hundreds of acres at one time.
From top down, left to right: David Jackson, Linda (Prickett)
Jackson, Martha "Marcy" Jackson and my special friend, David Jackson.
Many of the Prickett family members still live on Prickett Road and call
it home.
This piece of property at the corner of Prickett and Shoal Roads, was
at one time, a slave burial ground and about where the double-wide
is set-up, there were old slave quarters. The Prickett's did not
own any slaves but the previous owners in the 1800's left remnants
behind and the info was passed down. The name of the cemetery is
not known.
