Hickory Hill [GA]
Hickory Hill served as the home for Tom Watson, the divisive US Senator from Georgia. Watson, although elected as a democrat, soon was one of the senate's biggest advocates for southern black farmers. Today, Hickory Hill serves as a historic house museum which chronicles the life and times of Thomas Watson.
The home offers field trip programs, guided tours, summer camps, and exhibits on Thomas Watson. The website offers a biography of Watson, visitor information, a calendar of events, and resources for teachers including curriculum guides and worksheets.
