Abstract

Flossie Martin shelving an item included in the local history collection of the library. During the fundraising segment of the 1965-66 construction project, commissioners were persuaded to include a history room when Librarian Fannie Blackwelder went to the card catalog and pulled cards with the commissioners' names on them. The collection moved to a new room as part of the 1992 expansion. The room is named the Martin-Wall History Room in honor of Flossie Martin and James Wall, the County Historian for Davie County.
