• Will a Wilkinson County road bear a Klan victim's name? (newtoncountyappeal.com) — A road just six miles north of Woodville may soon be renamed to honor Clifton Walker Sr., a Black World War II veteran killed there in a racist attack in 1964. His family has asked Wilkinson County supervisors to change Poor House Road to Clifton Earl Walker Road, and officials are now seeking input from residents who live along the road before making a final decision.
