The Stockton Portable Reed Organ, a "god box" from the 1890s Stockton Family of Weaver's Creek near Parham, Monroe County, Mississippi, will be displayed and will be used to provide some of the music on October 18, 2009, at Mississippi Hill Country Heritage Day. The benefit for the preservation of The Cedars, Fulton's second oldest surviving house, will be at 211 Main Street, Fulton, 2 - 5 PM.
An article and photographs about the Stockton Reed Organ have been published at http://hillcountryhogsblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/hill-country-hootie-hoo-me-performing.html (click link to read).
