==Hello Everyone,

I am new to Wikipedia editing and I have reviewed the public school information for the city and only see information for the Senior High School. I am planning to add information on the junior high school and the elementary schools.== Jdelbert (talk) 06:50, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Huh?[edit]

"The Baker family moved into the house in 1888 and purchased it from the Hunter family in the early 1950s."

This can't be right. How do you move into a house 62 years before you purchase it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.171.17.134 (talk) 12:56, 1 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed quite a bit of inappropriate external links (to businesses, restaurants, etc.) but quite a bit of cleanup remains. I've tagged the article. Dawnseeker2000 19:38, 5 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

1942 Lynching?[edit]

Was there any mention in the article of the lynching and burning of Cleo Wright in January of 1942? Did I miss it? Is this the right town?RRskaReb talk 12:30, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is the right town. There appears to be a whole article: Lynching of Cleo Wright. It should be added. Grey Wanderer (talk) 12:47, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
