032014 RIGDON MARKER 01 — Howard Keeley, the director of the Center for Irish Research and Teaching at Georgia Southern University, speaks about the heritage of local families as the Bulloch County Historical Society dedicates a historical marker for the Rigdon Mill and Cemetery Thursday.

Editor's note: This article has been revised to reflect the following correction, which will appear in Sunday's print edition. Because of a typographical error, a front-page article Thursday about a historical marker honoring the Rigdon Cemetery and Rigdon's Mill twice misspelled the Rigdon family name. The Statesboro Herald regrets the error.
