As we continue using our local history and sites to illustrate the historical themes we’re studying, my class met today at King House and cemetery right on our own campus. Great discussions of wealth, slavery, business and financial dealings in early and antebellum Alabama.

Today my students & I went into the community to learn from historic sites. It was amazing to tour a house that began as an 1820s two room dogtrot then view an 1820s “big house” & adjacent 1830s church cemetery. Great discussions of early Alabama settlement, slavery, Native American history & more.

Thrilled to share I've accepted a position at the University of Montevallo as a TT Asst Prof of History! Troy has given me amazing opportunities & I’ll miss my friends, colleagues, & students, but I’m excited for the next stage, moving to Birmingham near my family, & getting started at UM!
