Now and then, 100 years of differences. Some build Now and then, 100 years of differences. Some buildings have been added; some are completely gone. Roofs have changed or have caved in. Power lines and paved streets. It may be sad to see our current state of downtown Ashburn but we like to be optimistic and hope for positive change soon; a revitalization of Ashburn. 

The old photo is a postcard scan from what the TCP *thinks* is the 1920s. It was taken from the top of the courthouse clock tower. In the photo you can see the old smoke stack that was once part of Bett’s Lumber Co. 

The new photo was taken with a drone from right beside the courthouse clock tower to get a similar view (also because the person behind the TCP is a scaredy cat and won’t go take a photo from the courthouse clock tower).
Celebrating all our of Turner County mamas this we Celebrating all our of Turner County mamas this weekend. They teach us to have strength like the strong oak tree, about a love so sweet it is sweeter than honey, how to make the best buttery biscuits, and so much more. We salute you this weekend and everyday! 

Featuring a few mamas from our People of Turner County series:
First photo: Lois Dye and son Michael Dye in 1955
Second photo: Elaine Mize Garrett with family Kevin, Lisa, and Donald Garrett in 1979. 
Last photo: Mary Forshee with her children (one being Jack Albritton) in 1944.
