I think I know the general idea of where you are talking about. I assume that your family recently sold part of their land to the state for the widening of 19, right? I know people that live on the West side of Memorial Mile and I know that the East side was just a huge farm so I am assuming that is where you are talking about. If thats the case, that is where they are widening the road and they are going around Memorial Mile. Am I right?
My Father says that he remembers a family buying a large tract a land out there about 15 years ago and building a nice brick 2 story house on it. In fact my father wrote the insurance on it (he was an Allstate Agent in Americus at the time), but he could not remember the family name.
To answer your question, I have lived in Atlanta now for about 15 years and only go to Americus to visit family but I have many fond memories.
I tell people all the time that Americus was a great place to live but I wouldnt want to visit. ;)
