No Trespassing! What does it mean in Appalachia?
Research in Jellico & meeting WIllis
Recently Paul & I went on one of our regular research trips to find people still connected to the old ways of Appalachia. Have you ever thought how we do this? Of course, we go knocking on strangers doors in the isolated areas of the Southern App. Mtns. Not a real safe occupation, and I wouldn't suggest it. 

Paul has a very rich knowledge of all that is of these folks, their history and their traditions. He knows the counties, and towns and history about specific people of the last 100 years. And me, Kati-Jane, I just know how to smile and talk up a storm, and have fun. I love visiting everyone and learning about everything. With this combination, and with good people and good luck; Paul & I have spent over 30 years bringing the best of these strangers, their life stories and their spirits to you.  

We recently met "WIllis" a neat man living in his family's old mtn home. His kind heart wouldn't let us go without giving us something. A large goose neck gourd he grew and was proud of was the smallest of gifts that he had already gave us his time, his stories and an invitation to come back.  Over the years Paul & I have met; moonshiners, quilters, basket makers, dulcimer makers, carvers, and ginsengers. In a few cases we have met mercenaries, dealers of illegal products, and others. We have done so with tremendous skill, caution and respect for everyone we meet. So when you come upon signs like these on "Willis's" property, think twice before you knock on the door. There is alot of wonderful people to visit in these Southern highlands, in our case it a rewarding experience that we are able to share with you. Thank you for letting us do so for all these many years!
