Watch out...My Great, Great Grandfather is a Rabbit Sheriff.

Uncle must have had some added charges. I had a friend who pulled several tours for making shine, never pulled much more than a year, and all the time was pulled at an Air Force base, Eglin was one of them. He turned down parole , he had it so good.

My mother's uncle was the one that got in trouble with the Feds in White County. My dad's uncle was the moonshiner in the Athens area. I don't think he ever got caught. Setting all of that aside, I really do have a good family lol

That’s very cool. I’ll bet he had great stories to tell too…..

Well he was a Rabbit Sheriff...

I inherited his badge today. Apparently he patrolled the Union / Fannin County area way back before any of us were born.

I'd rather not say on an open forum but if there's a reason you're curious about it, pm me and let me know why it's important to you.

I believe the local law enforcement may have been loyal to the white lighteners back in the day. My father's uncle ran moonshine and apparently got tipped off anytime the Revenuers (Feds) were supposed to pay a visit.

Corrupt pigs everywhere

Not sure who that is. Is that a friend/family member of yours?
