Thanks Aaron. I live about 7 miles from Kikers and am familiar with the community. The old Kiker's store is still in use. It must be at least 100 years old. There was a one room school house very near the store about 70 years ago called Diamond Hill School. My father attended school there for about 4 years. Hopewell Methodist Church is just around the corner from the store. Hopewell was settled as Oneal's Meeting House, then changed name to Smallwell Church and then Hopewell. The Kiker family was instrumental in forming this church, which is still very active today..
