We were proud to welcome Mr. Rocky Lemmon from Byhalia and his friends from the Olive Branch area to tour the Historic Bond's House. Mr. Lemmon's family resided in the Bond's house at one time and he recounted some great information regarding the Bond's house.

The magnolia tree that he is standing in front of was planted by his grandmother. The tree overlooks the beautiful Tishtontee Creek.
