Back then
This week’s photo is from Hattalean Norman. It was taken in 1941 and shows Burger Ensley in front of the fire escape at the old Beta School, which was located near where the Scotts Creek Baptist Church parsonage is today. According to “The History of Jackson County,” the Beta School was abandoned in 1951 when it was consolidated with Addie, Balsam and Willets schools to form Scotts Creek Elementary. The first principal listed is Bertha Henson (1906-07) and the last is Gertie Moss (1944-51). The Herald publishes either a “Back Then” or “Then and Now” photo most weeks.
