This recipe I discovered in the Original Tennessee Homecoming Cookbook copyrght l985 by Rutledge Hill Press. I moved to TN from Michigan in l984 and purchased this cookbook in l990 shortly after marrying my second husband his favorite pie was chess of which was a new one on me.
The book said this recipe has been passed down through the Fitzgerald family of Williamson County for more that 100 years.  and was submitted by Chritine McKnight of Nashville.
