A Stroll Through Talladega

Let's take a stroll around town in  Talladega, Alabama.  Talladega has been our Weaver family's "hometown" for many generations, and for those of us who did not grow up in Talladega, it was our home away from home. 

The site of the Weaver-Ragsdale Store

Heritage Hall Museum
Built in 1909 as the Jemison-Carnegie Public Library

I thought this was an interesting view from the back of the town square. 

The architecture around town is worth a closer look.

It is nice to know that the community has these commemorative signs to help others know who helped establish the businesses on the square.

The Train Station

The train stain is now the Chamber of Commerce.

The ticket window at Talladega Stadium

The old site of Talladega High School, now serving as a middle school

Graham School

Isn't this nice to see … these signs are all around the areas where our Weaver home places are located.

I hope you enjoyed this stroll through Talladega. We will revisit some of these sites on our Family Trails. Of course there are many other sites in Talladega, but this stroll was a nice beginning.
