THOMASVILLE —
On “Georgia Day” in February, a rain-soaked group of history buffs braved the elements to witness unveiling of the Glenwood Historic District marker.
The marker resulted from a partnership between Thomasville Landmarks Inc., the City of Thomasville and the Thomasville Town Committee of the National Society of Colonial Dames in the State of Georgia.
It is the first in what Landmarks Director Brent Runyon hopes will be a series of markers erected to tell the story of each of Thomas County’s 12 historic districts.
“The marker includes text on one side and a map of the district on the other,” Runyon said.
