Last time my home state had a Miss America was 1986 with Susan Akin...from Meridian, MS which is where Holly is from. Lots of Meridian girls go to Alabama for school, it's only about an hour away.

Susan Akin crowned 1987 winner Kellye Cash, whose daughter Tatum will compete this December as Miss Virginia (as already listed in this thread).

I believe this is the second time a former Miss America's daughter has competed for the crown, the first being Rebecca King's daughter Diana competing as Miss Colorado for the 2012 crown.
