Manage episode 314881771 series 2939777
Straddling two states and four county lines, Ardmore is a unique town with a storied past. With origins dating back to the Trail of Tears and a boost from the L&N Railroad, Ardmore grew from a trading post into a thriving town. In this episode we hear about 1930s bootlegging traffic and an incident involving the Freedom Riders during the 1960s Civil Rights movement. Also, the murder of an Ardmore man, Kirby Cole - immortalized in song by Athens native, Aaron Sims.
