Title A name given to the resource Cheryle Bryan Subject The topic of the resource A portrait of Cheryle Bryan, lawyer. Description An account of the resource Although she was not born in Turner County, Cheryle Bryan without a doubt is full of pride for our little community. Her arrival to Ashburn on Election Day 1972 is one she will always remember as a new beginning and a chance for her to become an active citizen in our town. But it was also a step toward her future success. Lauded as the first female lawyer for the Tifton Judicial Circuit, she has faced misogyny and sexism since she has graduated from John Marshall University in Atlanta throughout her career. It has shaped the lawyer she is today and has led to a fulfilling, long career. On October 2021, she celebrates 51 years of being a lawyer. On April 17, 2021, the Turner County Project sat down with Cheryle to reflect on her journey to opening her law practice in Ashburn that has been in operation since April 15, 1974.

Linda: I only worked there two summers… in 1964 & 1965. TC Project: What did you work on? Linda: I did everything but set-typing; that kind of thing. I wrote weddings. I laid out ads. … TC Project: So did you actually work the printing press yourself? Linda: No. Jere Jordan worked the printing press. And F.M. Tison worked the linotype machine. But it was a hot type. He set all the type except for some of the ad type and some of the headlines; some of the big headlines and ad type were set by hand. Some of it was old wooden type and there is no telling how old it was… Most of what I did was society stuff. The news back then was so-and-so visited so-and-so. People called this info in. There were a couple of ladies out in the county that called each week; like a lady in the Amboy community, she would call; the Rebecca community, she would call and tell us so-and-so visited Cordele. So-and-so visited their relative or whatever. That was news! That is mainly what I was in charge of on the paper. But Mrs. Nora always had a weather report listed on the front page. TC Project: What was your favorite part about working at the Wiregrass? Mrs. Nora Lawrence? Linda: I enjoyed the experience. I was in “J” [journalism] school at the time and so the experience that I got as far as writing was good. But Mrs. Nora was such a character. And of course, Austin [Saxon] was there too and I had known him forever. He started in the 1950s until 1994. He was so good and no one could ever figure out why he stayed here.

Joyce Reed (JR): Lord, I will have to think back. It was in the [19]30s. Wayne Reed (WR): She was born in Pitts, Georgia in Wilcox County [in 1918]. And then her family moved down here. JR: We came to Turner County, I think I was in the 7th grade [approximately 1931-1932]. TCP: And why did you move to Turner County? JR: Well, my dad was a sharecropper and he moved from one landowner to another about every year or two. And so he moved here with a man named Guy Reed that he rented to. He subrented from another man and my daddy sharecropped with him. And we have been here since then. TCP: Where did you move to in Turner County? JR: We moved to a place called Davisville. A little community up near the hunting lodge [Red Pebble??]. It was on that farm but back a little ways. They lived and worked on that farm for a little while. From that place to a district called Amboy to the top of this hill [behind Reed Lane]. We called it the McHugh Hill because that was my daddy’s name [Joe McHugh]. TCP: How long did you live there? JR: Til I got married. I graduated from high school in 1936 in Rebecca. We only had 11 grades. We got married in 1942. WR: Daddy [Bobby Reed] was 17 years older than her. He was born in 1901. When World War I came along, daddy had a broke[n] leg and could not go off. When WW2 came along, he was just about too old for that war too but he broke the same leg again.

Mike Mastrario (M): I am gonna say probably June/July 1992. TCP: Explain how you found out about Turner County? M: We saw a house in Country Living Magazine and it had a section called the “Real Estate Sampler.” The house we wanted to see was in Rebecca, Georgia. We called the real estate agent, it was an agent out of Tifton, but they said that the house was under contract but there were a lot of other houses in the area for sale. So she sent me a little real estate magazine that showed different areas with houses for sale. We saw how big Tifton was and decided we didn’t want to live in Tifton. So we started looking at some of the surrounding areas in the book and there were some houses for sale in Turner County. They were extremely inexpensive. We initially came down to look at a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house on 5 acres down the middle of West End Avenue. We saw the condition of the houses around there and figured whatever money we put into this house, which needed a bunch of work done, we would never reclaim that value. So we looked at it and passed. The real estate agent was driving us, George Beasly from Ashburn, and we came back up West End Avenue and jokingly he said, “That big house there is for sale.” He was referring to the big 2 story Victorian [the Betts-Shealy House] with the grass about 2 feet tall and it was very unkempt. He said, “It’s really nice inside and it’s for sale!” and he sort of laughed like maybe it was out of our price range or that it was not quite what we were looking for and my wife said, “Can you get us the key so we can look at it?” The real estate agent said, “Really!?” To which I replied, “If she wants the key, get us the key.” Duration Length of time involved (seconds, minutes, hours, days, class periods, etc.) 2 minutes, 57 seconds Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Everyone had an ulterior motive for something in my mind at least. We had went on a little hike in the woods. I ain’t got no business down in the woods but we went. We ran across the Knight Riders in the woods. It was Halloween and it was something like maybe 1969 or something like that, and they were down in the woods and they had a man hanging up, but it wasn’t like a person, it was a dummy Turner County Project: Like an effigy. Virginia: It was what we thought was a real person but it wasn’t no real person, it was a dummy. We stepped up there to peep around the corner- you know, peeping through the woods at them and Mr. Robby [Reeves], the man’s farm we lived on, came up behind and said, “What the hell are ya’ll doing out here? Get your little - get out from here.” Then he started spanking our behinds and told us, “I’ll be by to talk to your momma in the morning.

She went on to face the integration of Turner County Schools, harsh slurs by school administrators, wrongful terminations, and adversity throughout her life, but she also had so many blessings: 6 wonderful kids, role models who helped her throughout the journey, and perseverance in spades to complete her education 25 years after she was supposed to graduate. The Turner County Project was so fortunate to sit down with Virginia on September 4, 2021 to hear her experiences.

He served in the Air Corps at age 17 (yes, underage) to help clean up Pearl Harbor. He created a thriving mechanic business in the sleepy town of Sycamore. He was a role model to young teens in the community, active in local politics, a leader in his church, and has even survived prostate and bladder cancer. He lived and breathed his work but even retirement doesn’t slow him down. Just ask the neighbor who saw him cutting down a tree in his front yard a few years back by himself. The Turner County Project got to sit on the Albritton side porch on January 15, 2022, with Jack, his wife Patsy, and his daughter Rene Fortson to discuss his life and his legacy.

Title A name given to the resource Portrait of John West Evans Description An account of the resource JOHN WEST EVANS (September 27, 1844 – January 16, 1904) Born in Hancock County to Sterling G. and Mary West Evans, John and his wife Ella, followed his business partner/brother-in-law John Samuel “J.S.” Betts (July 29, 1848 – April 25, 1918) and moved to Turner County in 1888 before it was even known as Ashburn or Turner County. John soon established himself as one of Turner County’s most entrepreneurial and civically active citizens. He was a leader in establishing the town as we know it. John was a bookkeeper for the firm and a prominent partner in the J.S. Betts Company which brought a lot of interest to the area with their sawmill. He also had his hand in the Betts-Evans Trading Company and Evans Realty Co. When the first post office was opened in Ashburn, he served as the first postmaster. He was also the Sunday school superintendent of the Methodist Church. “He had the wisdom twenty-five years ago to see that there had come a golden age for the lumber business, and forsook a good position to try his hand in a field of larger opportunity. He built up a great enterprise and made much money, and in doing of this was a chief factor in the building up of one of the best towns of South Georgia, and enabling a large number of men to make an [sic] hundredfold more than he made for himself. Not only did he make two blades of grass grow where one grew before, but he made many blades to grow where none grew before, and served his generation well.” To read more about John West Evans, check out Men of Mark in Georgia Volume 6 (covering the period of 1733-1911), pages 224-226.
