Old Berrien Newsletter, Volume 1, Number 1 (Fall 2007): “Traces of 1908 Nashville to Tifton Road Still Exist”, Fall Quarter 2007
Scope and Contents
This issue of the Old Berrien Newsletters focuses on two distinct areas of local history: the preservation of a mile-long stretch of the original 1908 Nashville to Tifton Road in Berrien County, Georgia, and the reactivation of the Berrien Historical Foundation. The document describes the physical characteristics of the preserved roadbed, which still reflects its 1908 construction standards, and highlights the renewed public interest in local history that contributed to the Foundation’s development following the county’s 150th Anniversary. It emphasizes the ongoing need to document and preserve the memories, photos, and artifacts held by the county’s senior citizens.
