My grandfather. Growing up in his family were sharecroppers, and he would find artifacts working in the fields and walking through the woods. He had an old cigar box he would keep those items in, and I have memories of looking though that box with him as a child and him telling me about the people who made them long ago. The Catawba Nation is also close in proximity to me and growing up I would see the name “Catawba” on various landmarks and business names.
