Mr. WHITEHEAD remembered the first store as being that of Jonathan JONES. He said that there was a saloon (quite legal in those days) near where the R. W. HARRIS Warehouse is located today. He remembered other stores abut that time being Bill WEBSTER's near where HILL Drug Store now is located; the store of Caly and Base McCOLLUM. HARKINS, SHELTON store where R. W. HARRIS and Son is now located.
Winfield is a small city situated in Northwest Alabama some 30 miles from the Mississippi state line. It lies in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountain range which stretches from deep south all the way to Maine. This area has an interesting history. Long before the earliest settlers arrived, Indian tribes hunted in the forest and fished in the streams and along and around Winfield. The town was originally called Needmore, but when it was incorporated in about 1897, the name was changed to Winfield in honor of General Winfield Scott. This area was once the Chickasaw Indian domain. Although there were no known Indian settlements within the county, several sites were maintained as hunting camps.

Alabama Historical Commission
ALABAMAS PLACES IN PERIL
11 Sites Selected
Most Endangered
Since 1994, the Alabama Historical
Commission and the Alabama Trust
for Historic Preservation have joined
forces to sponsor Places in Peril, a
program designed to highlight some
of Alabamas most significant
endangered historic sites. Modeled
after the National Trust for Historic
Preservations program, this years
list features 11 endangered sites.
Places in Peril is a valuable tool
in directing public attention to the
many cultural resources in Alabama
under threat from neglect or
demolition, said John A. Neubauer,
AHC executive director.
Being listed as a significant
historic endangered site carries no
formal protection, but it can help
generate the local support necessary
for the sustained preservation of
these resources, said Barbara
Adkins, ATHP president.
HISTORIC IRON AND STEEL
TRUSS BRIDGES
Statewide
Once commonplace along the
highways and byways of the state,
iron and steel truss bridges are
rapidly disappearing.
Often structurally deteriorated
and no longer wide enough or able to
handle the weight of modern traffic,
the bridges are being replaced with
modern bridges. While these new
bridges offer improved safety and
utility, they rarely possess the
picturesque character and visual
qualities exhibited by the historic iron
and steel truss bridges they replace.
As once-useful structures, the
preservation of iron and steel truss
bridges is often hampered by their
outdated use. An alternative to
demolition is the continued
maintenance and service of active,
safe bridges that meet current use
requirements.
SOUTH PERRY STREET
HISTORIC DISTRICT
Montgomery
The city of Montgomery has lost
many of its important historic
commercial buildings over the years.
Deferred maintenance and
demolition threaten a large section of
the South Perry Street Historic
District, listed in the National
Register of Historic Places in 1984.
Current redevelopment plans
include the construction of a new
parking deck. The city recently
purchased many of the South Perry
Street buildings and evicted the
remaining tenants. Demolition of
these buildings may happen soon.
South Perry Street illustrates a
century of Montgomerys
commercial architecture. The city
does have a choice to save these
important historic resources. With a
new downtown master plan and
revitalization efforts underway,
Montgomery has an opportunity to
capitalize on its unique commercial
architecture.
WINTERBORO HIGH SCHOOL
Talladega County
From the beginning, Winterboro High
School has been a community
building. Community members helped
construct the school in 1927 by
carrying rocks to the site.
For 80 years, it served the
community as a place of learning.
Now the community is trying to save
the school from possible demolition.
Because the old structure needs
repairs and expansion, questions are
now being asked: how much of the
original building should be saved? If
a new school is constructed behind
the old, could the old building be
adapted to a new use? To address
these issues, the Talladega County
Board of Education formed a
committee of preservationists, school
board members, administrators,
teachers, parents, and students to
look at different options.Many good
ideas are being considered and
hopefully a resolution will soon be
found.
ST. CLAIR SPRINGS HISTORIC
DISTRICT
St. Clair County
Alabama travelers have sought the
healing mineral waters of St. Clair
Springs since the mid-19th century.
Summer cottages, boarding houses,
and hotels were built after the area
became a resort destination during
the 1890s. Even after its popularity
waned, many including generations
of the same family - stayed on to live
in this quiet community.
Today, new development
pressures and the deterioration of
some of its historic buildings threaten
the character of the St. Clair Springs
Historic District listed in the National
Register of Historic Places in 1976.
AIRCRAFT HANGAR AT
GRAGG FIELD HISTORIC
DISTRICT
Clanton, Chilton County
For many years, the WPA aircraft
hangar at Gragg Field served the
Chilton County Airport. Today, this
abandoned structure has a collapsed
metal wall and a roof open to the
elements. With no funds for repair
and maintenance, its prospects for
reuse are not good. Still, local
preservationists believe the old
airport hangar is worth saving.
Constructed in 1937, the hangar
is a contributing resource within the
Gragg Field Historic District, one of
the few airports in Alabama to be
listed in the National Register of
Historic Places (2004). The district
is significant for its role in aviation
history as well as for its association
with the Works Progress
Administration (the hangar was
constructed as a WPA project) and
the Tuskegee Army Airfield.
Resources related to aviation
history have received little attention
until recent years. Recognizing the
significance of the airport hangar and
the urgency of its condition are
important first steps to saving it.

During a hectic tour day,
Missildine drove a Mobile teacher to
a local store to purchase a change of
clothes for a student who had
become ill while traveling to
Montgomery on a field trip. This
says a lot about Betty as she is by
nature a quiet, yet kind and gentle
person who is always eager to help
and does so without fanfare or want
of recognition, said Trina Binkley,
Goat Hill manager. As such Bettys
act of kindness is deserving of
recognition as Employee of the
Quarter.
EDGEWOOD COMMUNITY
Birmingham
Nothing can erode the character and
integrity of a neighborhood more
quickly than loosing its original
building stock. The Edgewood
neighborhood and business district in
Homewood is one place facing
pressure to tear down its historic
houses and commercial structures
for bigger and newer buildings.
The rapid growth of the
community threatens its treasured
architecture, cultural diversity, and
affordable housing market.
But it is not too late. Residents
can fight back to save what is
important. Identifying those elements
through survey and registration
efforts, improved local preservation
ordinances, and design review may
have an impact on future decisions.
Money used for new development
might also be used for preservation
and adaptive reuse.
CARRAWAY HOUSE
Birmingham
Residents both old and new in
Birminghams Norwood district
appreciate their neighborhood and
are committed to preserving it, but
the future of one Norwood landmark
is in peril.
The Carraway House, a fine
two-story Craftsman-style residence,
has been vacant for many years and
is suffering from damage and
neglect. To make things worse, a
recent upstairs fire destroyed about a
third of the roof subjecting it to the
elements.
Designed by Salie and
Mewhinney, the Carraway house
was originally constructed in 1916 by
T. S. Abernethy, president of the
Strand Theater Company. In 1933,
Dr. Charles N. Carraway, a
physician and founder of Carraway
Hospital, purchased the house from
Abernethy. The house changed
ownership over the years but it
wasnt until recently when the house
fell into disrepair.
The Norwood neighborhood is
looking for ways to obtain and
stabilize the property. Several
community development corporations
have expressed interest in working
with the neighborhood. If successful,
a restored Carraway House could
anchor the neighborhood and
function again as a beautiful and
useful building.
BIBB COUNTY JAIL
Centreville
The old Bibb County Jail is an ailing
landmark looking for a cure. After
the county constructed a new facility,
the old jail was abandoned without a
new tenant. Storm damage,
deferred maintenance, and neglect
have taken a great toll on the
building.
Demolition was considered but
the old jail was spared when
demolition bids came in too high. The
building continues to be endangered
FROM THE COMMISSION
continued from p. 1
PLACES IN PERIL continued from p. 1
although the community would like to
see it restored and useful again.
Mississippi architect, A. S. Hull,
designed the Bibb County Jail in
1910. The strucutre visually
compliments the nearby courthouse,
a grand Renaissance Revival building
also designed by Hull. Both buildings
contribute to the Centerville Historic
District which is listed in the National
Register of Historic Places.
The Better Hometown Group,
a city coalition, is trying to purchase
the old jail in hopes of turning it into a
county museum. However, the city is
willing to consider other plans that
may adapt the building to a new use.
OLD CHURCH OF THE
EPIPHANY (EPISCOPAL)
Guntersville, Marshall County
The former Episcopal Church of the
Epiphany (1917-18) is an important
example of the carpenters Gothic
architectural style which became a
signature of many small Episcopal
congregations of the late-19th and
very early-20th centuries.
When the congregation
completed a larger church in 1990,
the church building and the parish
house were turned over to the City
of Guntersville for use as an art
museum complex.
Today the old church and parish
house are scheduled for demolition
by the neighboring First Baptist
Church for use as a parking lot.
Sentiment to preserve the
structure is strong, but as yet no
feasible plan of action has been
developed.One local obstacle is the
general perception that the
significance of the structure is
primarily sentimental. The
buildings architectural significance
from a state perspective is still little
understood or appreciated.
BARCLIFT INN
Blountsville, Blount County
The old Huntsville-to-Tuscaloosa
stagecoach road was the Interstate
65 of the 1830s. The road then
linked north Alabamas largest town,
Huntsville, to the state capital of
Tuscaloosa. The stage road ran
directly through Blountsville, where
weary travelers could pass the night
at the inn run by Judge James
Hendricks before continuing on their
way north or southward.
Known as the Barclift Inn since
the early 1900s, this sturdy two-story
structure is one of the states few
remaining stagecoach stops dating
from around 1836. Commercial
encroachment threatens the inn
which is now for sale.
SUNNY SLOPE
Auburn, Lee County
An oasis of leafy tranquility amid
sprawling new apartment complexes,
Sunny Slope is a reminder of an
earlier Auburn the straggling rural
village of the 1850s. In those days,
Sunny Slope was the center of a
2,000-acre plantation on the edge of
town. Its architecture expresses the
distinctive brand of Greek Revival
architecture that flourished a decade
or so before the Civil War.
Sunny Slope, which was the
boyhood home of Alabama Governor
William Samford (1844-1901), is one
of only a handful of such dwellings
still standing. Situated on a wooded
five-acre site, Sunny Slope is
threatened by both residential and
commercial encroachment.
Sensitive development of the
surrounding acreage while
preserving the house as a visual
centerpiece is one proposed way to
accommodate perhaps inevitable
development while preserving a rare
relic from Auburns earliest days.

listing of historic cemeteries in

So far in fiscal year 2007, owners of
seven historic buildings in Alabama
completed certified rehabilitations. A
certified rehabilitation is a project
approved by the National Park
Service because it complies with
historic preservation standards and
owners of these projects earn tax
credits for their good work.
The Federal Rehabilitation Tax
Credit program provides a 20%
credit to taxpayers who rehabilitate
historic buildings used for incomeproducing
purposes. Owners
complete applications before their
projects begin to insure their property
is eligible for the program and to
insure their proposal is approved.
Fort McClellan Recreation
Center Complex in Anniston

ballroom to their former glory.
Montgomerys Schloss and
Kahn Building is office space.
Owners of the old warehouse took
advantage of the heavy timber
interior structure and brick walls to
create interesting offices for
themselves and their tenants.
The owners financial investment
and dedication to rehabilitating these
historic buildings are rewarded with
historic preservation tax incentives.
Everyone benefits from the
continued life of these structures--
from the enjoyment of the the

The volunteer spirit is alive and well at Old Cahawba! On Saturday, April 7, Old Cahawba Archaeological Park
participated in Park Day, a nationwide volunteer effort dedicated to cleaning and restoring Americas Civil War
sites. Sponsored by the Civil War Preservation Trust in partnership with the History Channel and Take Pride in
America, this event has provided much needed labor to some of our countrys most important historic treasures
for eleven years running.
Members of the surrounding communities of Orrville and Selma answered the call Easter weekend, with the
16 concerned citizens who turned out truly representing a cross section of the populace. Volunteers, young and
old, included members of Selma Boy Scout Troop No. 46, the Col. C. C. Pegues Chapter of the Sons of
Confederate Veterans Camp No. 62, and the Selma-Dallas County Historic Preservation Society.
With their assistance, the Old Cahawba staff was able
to clear trash and scrap metal from newly acquired land, a
two-acre block in the heart of this former state capital.
Trailers, sheds, stoves, and even a mobile home were
among the disposed items. In all, some 23 tons of debris
were removed from the park that day.
Old Cahawba has long depended on the community, the
diverse groups of people who call Cahawba their own.
These volunteers left with a sense of satisfaction and
accomplishment that day, ready to do it again when called
upon next year.

PARK DAY 2007
Alabama Correctional Industries, a
division of the Alabama Department
of Corrections, recently lent a hand
to the long-term, phased restoration
of Belle Mont in Tuscumbia.
A crew, made up of prisoners and
their supervisors, worked on the
courtyard and the new stairs leading
to it. They also replaced undersized
gutters and downspouts to improve
drainage away from Belle Monts
historic brick walls.
While providing construction
services, the men practiced skills that
will help them find employment after
they have served their sentences. I
have been very pleased with their
work and the diligence of their
supervisors, said Melissa Beasley,
Belle Mont site director.
Belle Mont is one of Alabamas
most distinguished houses, an
outstanding example of Thomas
Jeffersons influence upon the
architecture of the early American
republic. Characteristics of the
Palladian or Jeffersonian style are
an accent upon high-quality
brickwork with contrasting wood
trim, a preference for hilltop building
sites, and designs that show
Jefferson reverence for the
neoclassical architectural ideas of
Italian Renaissance architect Andrea
Palladio. Belle Mont exhibits all
these qualities and more.
A raised, two-story central
section with flanking one-story wings
is typical of both Jefferson and of
Palladian architecture in general. So
is the U-shaped floor plan in which
the side-wings project to the rear to
embrace a courtyard. Belle Monts
floor plan mirrors these elements. A
very similar plan is in fact preserved
among Jeffersons drawings housed
at Harvard University.

YEARS PRESERVING ALABAMA
At a time when funding for paid staff in many
Alabama historical sites is dwindling, the
University of West Alabamas (UWA)
Department of History has teamed up with the
Alabama Historical Commission and UWAs
Center for the Study of the Black Belt to offer
internships in historic preservation.
UWA currently sends graduate students to
two historic sites, Magnolia Grove in Greensboro
and Gaineswood in Demopolis, providing students
with valuable hands-on experience in historical
research and preservation, in addition to classroom
credit. In turn, the sites receive highly skilled
students to assist with a variety of museum
functions that may otherwise be deferred due to
staff shortages.
Eleanor Cunningham, Magnolia Grove site
director, and Dr. Joe Wilkins, former UWA dean of
graduate studies, began the collaboration in the fall
of 2005, when Magnolia Grove was facing staff
layoffs due to budget constraints.
Graduate student Lakeisha Croxton of
Forkland is currently serving as the historic
preservation intern at Gaineswood and Angelina
Sprye of Boligee is interning at Magnolia Grove.
They each spend at least five hours a week at
their assigned sites working directly with the
Alabama Historical Commissions site directors.
The internship in historic preservation has
been a tremendous benefit, Cunningham said.
Some of their projects have included processing
manuscript collections and entering data into
collections management software. This semester,
Angelina is developing lesson plans that integrate
Magnolia Groves interpretive themes into the
Alabama social studies curriculum.
Sprye says she is learning valuable lessons
from the internship. Accordingly, she hopes her
lesson plans will inspire younger students to take
an interest in preservation. With the plans I am
developing, the students will learn about the history
of the home, the lifestyle of its residents, and its
architecture, Sprye said. If the students are
enlightened by the study, they may consider a
career in historic preservation.
HURRICANE KATRINA RELIEF
GRANTS TO BE MADE AVAILABLE
Congress has appropriated $43 million for historic
preservation projects to provide disaster relief in
the states of Alabama, Louisiana, and
Mississippi affected by Hurricanes Katrina and
Rita which occurred during 2005. Of the original
grant pool of $1.4 million previously announced
for Alabama, $322,000 is still available.
Applications will be accepted on the first of
each month until grant funds are exhausted. It is
expected the grant pool will be fully exhausted by
the end of summer 2007; however, grant
applications will be accepted until the end of
2007 if this is not the case.
Twenty-two counties in Alabama are eligible:
Baldwin, Bibb, Choctaw, Clarke, Colbert,
Cullman, Greene, Hale, Jefferson, Lamar,
Lauderdale, Marengo, Marion, Mobile, Monroe,
Perry, Pickens, Sumter, Tuscaloosa,
Washington, Wilcox, and Winston.
To qualify for grant funds, a structure or
archaeological site must be listed in the National
Register of Historic Places or considered eligible
for National Register listing according to criteria.
Grants are to provide disaster relief for
expenses which were not reimbursed by
insurance or other federal programs. No religioususe
or federally-owned properties are eligible to
receive these grant funds.
The purpose of this funding is to provide
technical assistance and emergency repairs to
historic and archaeological resources impacted
by the wind and water damage caused by
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The maximum
amount for an individual grant is $100,000.
For more information and an application form,
contact Elizabeth Brown at (334) 230-2667.
