The DeKalb County School Desegregation Case Files document the work of the law firm Weekes & Candler defending the DeKalb
County Schools in litigation over school desegregation from 1968 to 1997. The files document the progression of the case from
the perspective of the defendants, the demographic makeup of students and to a lesser extent all of DeKalb County during this
period, and the evolution of school desegregation case law. The majority of the files are pleadings, exhibits, and data about
the school system, as well as other kinds of legal documents, research, and correspondence. Common subjects include attendance
boundaries, the DeKalb County Schools policies and procedures, enrollment numbers of students including race, the quality
of education, and statistics about teachers and staff.

Dates: |
1850-1914 |
|
| |
Contents: |
The collection consists of correspondence and diaries of the Akehurst and Lines families from 1850-1914. The bulk of the
correspondence contains letters between Jennie Akehurst, a teacher at Covington, Georgia and Sylvanus Lines of Fayetteville
Georgia during their courtship (1857-1860) and married life (1861-1874). Topics discussed include family matters, life in
Georgia, and news of relatives. Another portion of the correspondence consists of letters to and from Daisy Lines while teaching
in Irvington, Georgia (1882-1898). Includes drafts of letters to and letters from Jerome Reneau, writing from Greene County,
Alabama and Texas; correspondence to Jennie Lines; and correspondence from Daisy's aunt Anna Marie Akehurst Barham. Topics
discussed include Reneau and Daisy's friendship, Reneau's farming in Alabama, social events, Daisy's teaching, and family
news.
The diaries were written by Jennie Akehurst Lines (1859-1861 and 1861-1871) and Anna Maria Akehurst Barham (1861-1871). Jennie's
diary entries prior to 1861 mainly concern financial hardships and personal matters. Beginning in 1860, entries discuss the
political climate, the 1860 election, abolitionists, and slavery. For 1861-1866, the diary contains information on Georgia's
succession from the union, social life and living conditions during the Civil War, problems with slaves, and freedmen. Entries
for 1866-1871 again mainly focus on personal matters. The Barham diary contains entries pertaining to the Female Orphans'
Asylum (Macon, Ga.), where she was matron, the South's reaction to the Battle of Bull Run, economic and living conditions
in Georgia during the Civil War, problems with Confederate currency, cotton planting both during and after the war, and problems
hiring and supervising freedmen.

During the 1990s, Dalton, Georgia's growing carpet industry brought increasing numbers of Spanish speakers into the region
and the local school system. In 1996, local attorney and former U.S. congressman Erwin Mitchell recognized the need for bilingual
educators in Dalton Public Schools to teach the growing number of non-English speaking students. Mitchell and a small group
of Dalton citizens founded the Georgia Project, a community based non-profit organization, to serve the academic needs of
Latino and Hispanic students, their teachers, and their parents. The Georgia Project developed an exchange program and brought
qualified bilingual teaching assistants from Spanish speaking countries to assist in Dalton Public Schools. The collection
illustrates the partnership that developed between the Georgia Project, University of Monterrey in Mexico, and the City of
Dalton and Whitfield County schools. Committee files, conference and meeting files, general files, and financial records document
the administrative activities of the staff of the Georgia Project. Reference material including clippings, reports, and publications
demonstrate the need in the community for bilingual education and teacher training. The collection includes correspondence,
memoranda, notes, reports, clippings, financial records, statistical reports, publications, photographs, and audiovisual material.

This collection contains the business and personal records of the Hand family of Pelham, Georgia and reflects the status of
South Georgia's agricultural economy from the end of Reconstruction to the early 1980s. Initial success in land speculation,

his expansion into banking, railroads, textiles, and fertilizer manufacture.
The collection is comprised of the deeds, financial records, and correspondence of the Hand family's many businesses; political
papers relating to Frederick Barrow Hand, Sr.'s terms in the Georgia General Assembly from 1933 to 1955 and his 1954 gubernatorial
primary campaign; photographs of J. L. Hand's businesses, employees, and home, as well as Fred Hand, Sr.'s political career;
