Hey Brian,
One individual who grew up in this Girard house was John Chandler Hickman. This may explain that comment about Coca-Cola founder Asa Candler. Cecil Hickman shared this information on the identity of of the home’s inhabitants after I shared your posting to the FB group Burke Co GA Genealogy.
President and Founder of Coca-Cola. Home.

To whom do you refer, Edward? Asa Candler?
so glad to hear that you are expanding! I see so many interesting old abandoned homes here in Bibb county that I really think belong on a site like this. Can’t wait to see your new pics.
Thanks, Karen! It will probably be a month or so, but I’ll be up there. I know Macon quite well and that should come in handy. If there’s anything you think of in particular, let me know and I’ll do what I can to shoot it.
Brain having grown up in and out of Barney(Dad was in the service and every time he got transferred we stayed there with my Grandmother) I want to thank you for these photos of South Georgia-every post makes me download the town to see if i ever was there.
Thanks, Richard. I’m glad it brings back good memories and hope you’ll keep looking and share it with your friends!
I absolutely LOVE your posts. I miss riding in the country and seeing all the old homes and barns.
Thanks! Nothing like rambling in the country…
I miss those rides too. When growing up, at least every other Sunday after church an fried chicken, we would pile in our 1947 Dodge and, as my daddy called it, “go to the country”.
I abolutely love your posts.
Thanks, Rose!
