Hamilton County's past harbors sundry strange tales, many of them lost to time--until now. In 1867, a groom disappeared just before his wedding, presumably running away on cold feet. Four decades later, his remains were discovered buried under a shed in a mystery that remains unsolved. In the 1870s, the sheriff marshaled a seven-man posse, including two local African Americans, to deal with "desperados" in an isolated corner of the county. Their heroic efforts swiftly liberated the local populace from the yoke of banditry. A giant wave of ravenous squirrels descended on Central Indiana in 1822 to feast on crops, to the shock and dismay of new settlers. Join County Historian David Heighway for a tour of all things odd and forgotten.

Growing Up with Bakers Corner is a remarkably detailed and often touching story of farm life lived 1907-2003 by an intelligent, sensitive, and interesting woman, Mary Elizabeth Wilson. Although her life was lived in a little town in central Indiana, in many ways, with its stories of customs and extended family and farm chores it could have happened almost anywhere in the Midwest. But because of the storytelling talent of its author, this story becomes distinctive: a colorful kaleidoscope of remembrances and tales and people taken which together form one unique and quietly remarkable life. Mary Elizabeth kept all the beloved memorabilia of the life she loved as a child: dolls and toys, church songbooks, furniture and even her grandmother's hanging matchbox. She also kept memories stored from her nine decades and put them into the letters and essays which form the basis of this book.
