Bits of the past
Local people share treasures at antiques show

Bobby Smith shares the story behind a clock that once hung in the Jaeckel Hotel during a Bulloch County Historical Society luncheon at R.J.'s Seafood & Steaks Monday which allowed members to show off their most prized possessions, Antique Roadshow-style.
About 50 members and guests of the Bulloch County Historical Society enjoyed seeing bits of the past Monday as the group held its second local version of the “Antiques Roadshow.” There were treasured pieces of china, silverware that had been unearthed by a farmer’s plow, and even a document that could be the original deed for the town of Excelsior. “We did this two years ago and I don’t think we had nearly this many items brought in,” said Joe McGlamery, program vice president for the club.
