The island is now inhabited by wild turkey and deer. Regardless of what name you know it as, the island is rich with history and worth a visit. Legend has it that just after sun down, the ghost of Francis Thornton can be seen floating across what use to be the fields of the once active farm. When you visit the island look the initials JEB carved in the small farm building. We hope that you enjoyed this issues feature.
