Carrollton, Al.

Before writing about Henry Wells. I spent many hours in old newspapers researching just what may have happened the week Wells was killed. The fact that I grew up in Carrollton was a big help. Nor will I ever forget the many stories passed down from my great grandmother (Emma Fulgham) to my grandmother Georianna Chiles Hicks. Mama Emma died in Carrollton in 1938. She was twenty one years old when Wells died. I make no claim that everything I wrote is the absolute truth. I am satified however that it comes darn close. www.yesterday24.com

Thanks Mr Hicks! I enjoyed that. How can I get your book?

Very Nice Mr. Hicks! Looks like the REAL story is not being told. I wish some of Henry's relatives would come through with the real story, it just might set him free!

Good Evening Mr. Hicks I was writing in because I came across your video about the face in the window at the court house in Alabama I was just telling my kids this story . Because I have family that stay in carrollton alabama and when I read the description of your video and saw that your grandma last name is hicks chiles and lord I almost fell out of my chair because I've been trying to find out more information about our family history the child's family which was changed when my granddad moved to Chicago and I hope that you could help me out. Now I don't know how true this is I can only but it would mean the world to me and my family; Since I don't know that much it's been very hard for me to create this tree. My great grand dad suppose to be Fred Chiles

"After 4 years of European middle school I found myself in a small rural and extremely racist town in Northwest Alabama. My first day in the 7th grade was also the first day of imposed integration. The school of 500 white elementary and high school students now included 18 black students and 2 black teachers. The better educated white students adjusted to the change throughout the year, while those with lower IQ's sought to only cause division.." from my memoirs Time ( The town was Carrollton) Thank you Mr. Hicks for your video. I recall Pickens County all too well, and in writing my memoirs of my youth it still remains a stumbling block. I walked the halls of CHS the same years as Cleve Hale, Jerome Tate, Larry Howard and Mac Prude, just to name a few. I wish you luck in your future endeavors.

Turtle MClintock So glad to hear of your experiences in Carrollton. I recognize most of the names you mentioned, matter of fact Cleve Hale is a close family member. Should your memoirs ever become available to the public please let me know as I would love to purchase a copy.
