How did Falkville get its name? How is that connected with Decatur? My friend Phil Wirey is a great historian and Vice-President of the Morgan County Historical Society. From time to time Phil sends me great tidbits of his knowledge on wide-ranging types of history. Phil has a particular interest in early religion in Morgan County and has recently done some research on early Decatur and Morgan County settlers of the Jewish faith who became business leaders in our county. I am pleased to share some of his work with you today.
