This is my grandmother Mary Hampton Duck, sitting, with her twin sister Frances. This was their graduation from college. She taught school in Red Lick Mississippi from 1916-1923 while my grandfather was the minister at Rodney Presbyterian, Red Lick and Hermanville. I am named for her. She died when I was just a toddler but I used to lay in bed with her at night and my mom said she would tell me stories late into the evening. I suspect she told me about Rodney. It was quite a shock for her coming from a town in Kentucky where her father was the train engineer according to my father at first. She was a city girl initially. Both my grandparents ended up loving Jefferson County and Rodney. Happy Mothers Day to her today.
