The History of Whitlock’s Book Barn
One thought on “Books”
My family and my husband’s family have a long history with the Whitlock family – turkey farm and books. I am fortunate to have lived near the farm for over 55 years. Most of my children’s books came from there and they still visit whenever they are in Town. Wonderful, peaceful day trip. Helpful staff. You are sure to find a treasure. My personal thanks to Norm Pattis for saving this special place.
