This is interesting. When I was in high school all the cooking classes made pies for all 50 states. I made Jeff Davis pie which they said was for Mississippi. It was nothing like this one. I new a friend who said her grandmother had made a Jeff Davis pie she had learned to make in probably 30's or maybe earlier. This pie was more of an egg custard pie. I will write her and see if she has the recipe. I will also try to find my recipe also. Varina Davis said her husband loved sour apple pie and none of these pies have that in them.
