The Home of A H Stevens, Vice President of the Confederacy, is located directly behind you across Memorial street. Stephens built Liberty Hall in 1875.
Synopsis of the Movie Carolina Skeletons; After a long time in the Army, an American soldier returns to his hometown (Crawfordville, Tenn), where, years ago, his brother was executed for the rape and murder of two girls. Mr Gossett, an army commando, believes his brother was innocent and seeks a proof for that. His "Search for the Truth" is resisted by some people in Crawfordville who will stop at nothing to hide the secrets of their past. A major portion of this movie was filmed right here in Crawfordville, GA.
