i happened on this site when i was researching some comments about my Grandfather – Lawrence E Mallard……Mr Mallard was mayor two times, owned the Ford Motor Company and Superintendent of the school system yrs ago. I spent many a summer with my wonderful grandparents in Folkston GA and remember all of the “downtown: buildings very well
what a joy to go back in time –
Glad you enjoy the photographs, Shirley!
