Youngblood Description An account of the resource "It came to our knowledge this date that Warden Youngblood has turned in a sixty (60) day notice with the commissioners of his leaving his job as warden of Turner County P.W.C. We do not know the reason for this action but we are pleading with you to help us keep this fine man as our warden and not let him leave if possible. As Felony inmates of the state of Georgia most of us have been to other camps beside this one and have been under different wardens in those times. We would like to try and tell of some of the things that this man has done for us and to help us. It would be impossible to write everything that he has done as it would take to much of your time to read it all. Sinse [sic] Warden Youngblood has been at this camp he has fed us like human beings instead of like we were a bunch of hogs rooting for what we could get and if a man gets sick then he sees to it that the man gets to a doctor and gets the proper treatment it takes to get him back in good health. The buidlign that we live in thanks to Warden Youngblood is as fine as most people on the out side but above all Warden Youngblood treats each man equal and as a human being, if a man has personal problems and needs to talk to the wards then Warden Youngblood will take time out from his family and sit here untill [sic] all hours with an inmate to try and help him and help the man to make his time and get out of prison a better man than he was when he got in prison. There is not an inmate here at this camp that would not go out of his way to do anything in this world that he possibly could for Warden Youngblood and would work for him on Saturday and Sunday if he ask us to because we know that this man is a good man and that he is going to treat us like men. Warden Youngblood has given us an educational program as good as any in the state and he hs given us a religious program just as good as any where, also he has provided us with a sports program and did everything that he could to help us be better men and go back out in the world with a different attitude towards life so that we will not return to prison. Sir we are begging you at this time to help us keep this fine man if at all possible, none of us want to see him leave here as he is more than needed here to keep on with the find [sic] work that he is doing here now..."

Interviewer The person(s) performing the interview Shelley Zorn; Gail Walls Interviewee The person(s) being interviewed Warren Hancock Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound Shelley: Thursday, December the fifth at 1:30 in the afternoon Shelley Zorn and Gail Walls interviewing Mr. Warren Hancock. Warren: So let me give you some background before you start recording. Okay I want you to understand where I'm coming from when I start talking. To you about the Mr. Cribs hanging. I'm going to give you the background on my family. The Hancock family. They came to Turner County in 1860 and settled on Alapaha River on what's now Hill Young's farm. And there's still a two-story house over there that I think my great grandfather built. He was a primitive Baptist preacher. Redheaded man. And he pastor in Bushwick Creek Church in Irwin County.mAnd he spoke several times in the church just south of Abbeville. But he had this huge family of boys and two or three girls. I don't remember how many. My grandfather built a house next to his house on Hill Young Farm field now. And he had eleven, ten or eleven people. Which our father was in the crowd. Shelley: He was one of the crowds. Gail: So your great great great grandfather was originally came here. Warren: No, great grandfather. My father, my grandfather, and his father were all about forty years old when the ones in my family were born. My father was, his daddy was about forty when he was born. My daddy was about forty. And your grandfather was about forty. fSo we go back five generations fast. Real easy. Because this great grandfather died in 1879. Shelley: And they all had you think eleven or twelve kids. Warren: Yeah. Shelley: That's a bunch. Yeah, they did that. Warren: In the 1800s, they did. All this- J.J. Hancock was his initial. It came in 1860. His children all turned out, the majority of them, to be politicians. One of them was clerk of the court in Wilcox County. One of them was the sheriff in Irwin County. My grandfather was what we call ordinary. I don't know if you know how the county works here or not. He was the ordinary Turner County. Shelley: Oh, okay. Probate. Warren: And my father was the justice of the peace. A deputy sheriff. Justice of the peace used to be a big thing. And he married a lot of people. They got him as minister of the gospel in the history of Turner County one time and he always got a kick out of there. But anyway, he was a politician from his toes. And all of the boys that my grandfather had worked at one time with other ordinary office over the deputy ordinary. And my father did. Shelley: So it was the preacher that raised all the politicians, is that correct? Warren: Yeah. He was the preacher. That would be my grandfather's great uncle's name. And I found a way to know those office. (audio quality and tape fades out)...

The publicity is of the favorable and constructive sort; it affects more than the pleasure and gratification of the people of Ashburn and the region about that town; it is publicity which is building up not only Ashburn but making Turner county stronger, but which is turning solid and substantial settlers and investors in their serious attention toward this part of the state. Ashburn's publicity is a distinct asset to the state, particularly this part of the state." ...
