- Great stuff here. We have a street named Chickasaw right next to us, and I never knew the origin. I've not yet been to Alabama and enjoyed learning more about it.

- I haven't spent too much time in Alabama, but I did drive through it twice on road trips. Once just by the coastline, and once through the entire state through Birmingham to Mississippi. Nice work!
