- Description:
- This collection contains letters, newspaper articles, a scrapbook, and photographs relating to businesses in LaGrange, in particular Citizens & Southern Bank, during the mid to late twentieth century. Letters and news clippings give insight into the personal contributions and honors of Woodrow Smith to the city of LaGrange. The scrapbook contains newspaper ads and company letterheads from the LaGrange area and gives examples of the types of businesses that once operated here. The photograph collection gives a pictorial history of the interior and exterior of the Citizens & Southern Bank building, beginning at its old location on the northwest corner of Main and Broome Streets (now the Troup County Archives) to the new building erected on the southwest corner of the intersection. Included in these photographs are pictures of the Truitt House, a Victorian house that once stood where the Citizens & Southern Bank was erected. The Citizens & Southern Bank has since changed its name to the Bank of America.
