The Felder Family
With the recent passing of Miss
Lucie Felder, memories were
brought to mind of two of Perry’s
old pioneer families. This article
was written as a brief history of
two—the Felder and Swift fam
ilies.
♦ * ♦
Hans Heinrich Felder, his wife,
Ursula, and son, John Henry, set
tled in Orangeburg Township in
South Carolina on two hundred
acres of land granted to him by
Lieutenant Governor Broughton
I September 17, 1736. Both parents
died a few years later.
The son. John Henry, inherited
the property and became quite in
fluential, holding important posi
tions under the Provincial govern
ment of South Carolina. He was
captain of a company of militia
during the Revolution and was
killed in a fight with Tories about
the close of the War. He was twice
married and had thirteen children,
i His son, Henry, succeeded his
father as captain and after the
Revolution was a justice of the
peace. His six children were quite
small when he died.
I Samuel, the third child of Hen
ry, was born November 24, 1796.
He married Ann Barsh and as far
as we know was the first of the
family to come to Houston county.
He died October 3, 1867 and he
and his wife are buried in Ever
| green Cemetery in Perry.
) Their son, Edward, was one of
'six children. He was born May 3,
j 1826 and died August 25, 1872. He
. was married twice, the second
time to Charlotte Mary Swift, the
daughter of William Swift and
Elizabeth Furlow Swift whose
home still stands on Swift Street.
All are buried near each other in
Evergreen Cemetery. Os this mar
riage, five children survived them:
William, Samuel, Thomas, Kate
and Lucie. Thomas Swift Felder,
the youngest son, was at one time
Attorney General of Georgia.
Lucie, the youngest and last,
died September 17, 1961. Most of
her life was spent in the home
where she was born almost nine
ty years ago.
Three nieces survive her; Mrs.

Letter to Editor
Editor, Home Journal,
We wish to express our appre- (
ciation to the many people in this
area who cooperated with the Gen
eral Daniel Stewart Chapter, DAR, I
in making the public aware of the i
significance of “CONSTITUTION 1
WEEK”. <
Our special thanks to the may- '
ors of the cities in Houston Coun- 1
ty, the Houston Home Journal, Ra- 1
dio Stations WRPB and WPGA, 1
Perry churches and ministers,
Walter F. George School of Law, 1
Mercer University, Perry schools,
lunchrooms, The Perri-Scope, Earl j
Smith and his history students, j
civic organizatinos, Muse Theater, ]
and the many businesses and pro- ,
fessional buildings whose appro- j
priate displays helped to make the
week more meaningful to all of 1
us.
A special thanks to you and your
staff for the publicity you have
given our organization. i
PAULINE LEWIS, Regent
TWO AND TWO—The new ma
thematics guide that the State De
partment of Education has just
published and the “new look” that
math has taken on reminds me of
the child who said that two and
two don’t always make four. “Two
raindrops and two raindrops make
a puddle,” said the little girl.
Gladys Thomason is our state math
consultant. She is one of the rea
sons why mathematics is becom
ing a more interesting subject in
Georgia schools. Alton Ellis, in
structional supervisor in Clarke
county, is chairman of the commit
tee that developed the new guide.
Your math teachers will find it
interesting when it gets to your
school. It will be tried out in 28
schools this year, and get to all of
them next year.
Elbert Fields, Mrs. R. A. Bowen
and Miss Ella Lee Felder.

CITY COUNCIL
“I can tell you what the situa
tion is now,’ Mr. Lowe said. “I
cannot guarantee what will happen
in the future.”
Mr. Lowe said if a city decides
ot start an urban renewal pro
gram, it usually takes five years
to complete a project.
Mayor Beckham told Mr. Lowe
that mayor and council did not
ask him to come down and explain
the program so they could “make
a decision tonight” but only to re- 1
ceive information in view of the
fact that urban renewal and low
rent housing have “become live
issues” in Perry.
FROZEN SWEET POTATOES
Sweet potatoes can be frozen to
preserve this good food while it is
in abundant supply, suggests Miss
Nelle Thrash, Extension food pre
servation specialist. They can be
frozen three ways—baked, sliced
or pureed, and can be kept up to
12 months in the home freezer.
Tenant-musician: “No, but hum
the tune and I might pick it up.”
