Nix, Jim The back of the photo states "Jim Nix, Ayersville Blacksmith Shope" No date, circa 20's-30's (At that time, Ayersville was no longer in Habersham Co, but had become part of Stephens.) A note from Jean: Ayersville was a loving, friendly community; where people rarely locked their doors (back then). It was in Habersham until Stephens was originated in 1905. It at one time had a post-office; located at the Kytle home on an enclosed porch. I remember the train passing through; removing the outgoing mail from it's perch on the mail-pole; and a duffle bag being thrown from the train containing the in-coming mail; and the train never slowed down. One old gentleman had a small "store" on his back porch; and another family had a store on the highway. That was the "town" of Ayersville Submitted by Jean Sharp ← |
