Source - Memories of Wanda (Willard) Smith on May 6, 2006: "There were other thriving communities within 3-5 miles west of Wortham (in Limestone County) that no longer exist (none had a cemetery so far as I know). One such was "Harmony Hill" where my mother's family lived. This was a thriving community of small farms, with a school (taught only to the 9th grade). If a student wanted to graduate from high school, they had to go to Wortham which went through grade 11. They had to take a room in town through the week (as my mother did) because country roads were impassable for much of the time. Today, these small farms are gone (with only the remains of an occasional chimney and a few bricks from an old water well to mark where a house had been) and the land has been turned into pasture. Another community nearby was "Hardy Chapel." My mother and her older brothers attended this school for a time. Not far from these two was the "Lost Corner" community and down the road was "Tehuacana Valley" school [the village of Tehuacana is farther west]. I've been told that my dad was born at a place called "Seale Chapel," about 2 miles west of Wortham, but knowledge of this place, too, has passed out of living memory." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Source - Clarifications by Wanda (Willard) Smith on May 7, 2006: "The Lost Corner community I mentioned was nowhere near Stewards Mill or Birdston or even in Freestone County. Instead, this one was in Limestone County, 4 or 5 miles west of Wortham. The Lost Corner schoolhouse stood a short distance north of what is now Hwy 27, not too far west of the Charles Chausse home. Much of the land was owned by various Calame families (Mrs Charles Chausse was Adele Calame). [Eric, I think there is a photo of the Chausse house in one of the FC Hist. volumes. The house burned years ago.] I doubt if there are any landmarks of the Lost Corner schoolhouse today--or if anyone still living could point out its location. An identifiable landmark a little further west is a small hill, called "Bald Knob." Again, I have no idea who owns the land now (but perhaps Calame or Weaver descendants)."
