Looking for old photos of Decaturville, Tennessee

Do you have old pictures of Decaturville? Especially of interest are pictures of buildings. The old photos are being collected to create a limited edition collage for framing and note cards.

This is an effort to preserve as much of the history of Decaturville as possible. The results will be sold at the Main Street Festival on Oct. 20. The funds will be used by Main Street Association for the festival as well as for beautification projects.
