Hi there... Back in the early 1800s my great great grandfather lived in
Macon and owned a buggy factory. I have looked in Bibb county history and
have never seen anything about this plant. Am interested in learning the
tid bits regarding it. Here is my Castens genealogy. Before they moved to
Mississippi, they lived in Talbot and Bibb County, Georgia.
