Notes for JAMES ANDREW SIMPSON:
James and family lived in GA during the civil war. One of the daughters told a story of how the union soilders came and found the corn they had hid. The box was unmoveable (nailed down) so he got a pair of her daddy's breeches, tied knots in the leggs and filled up the pants with the corn. She said she would always remember the soldier riding off with her daddy's pants "Riddin' behind him". She also told how they could see Atlanta burn for three days. After things quiten down, she walked all the way to Rockmart, Ga to get help for the family. She tells about meeting a black woman and asking for someting to eat.
