Text of marker: "WHATLEY MEMORIAL HISTORIC PARK. This park is the last piece of unused land of the original campus of Bowdon College (1856-1936). It was also the backyard of the McDaniel-Whatley home, the last remaining building of that institution. Mr. Vachel D. Whatley Sr. graduated from Bowdon College in 1893 and served as school president 1897-1900 and again 1907-1912. The Whatley family donated this park to the city of Bowdon on August 2, 2003." - External Identifiers:
