TGT: Hayrick Traditional Cache
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
Hayrick, in southeastern Coke County, was named for a nearby
mountain shaped like a hay mound. In 1887 the town had twenty-five
people and a post office. It was designated the county seat when
the county was organized in 1889, but an election in 1891 made
nearby Robert Lee the county seat, and Hayrick's population moved
there. A majority of the settlers in the southern part of the
county had always opposed Hayrick's selection as county seat, and
two of its courthouses were destroyed by fire-possible arson-before
Robert Lee won the election by a margin of forty-eight votes in a
total vote of nearly 400.
