Annual Christmas Clearing House Original 1950s photographs and video footage celebrating Worth County’s centennial now freely available in the Digital Library of Georgia
Known locally as the “Peanut Capital of the World,” Worth County was formed Dec. 20, 1853, from parts of Dooly and Irwin counties. In October 1953, the county honored its centennial anniversary with a weeklong celebration that included public performances and assemblies, parades, sporting events, agricultural amusements, dances, a pageant, special guest speakers, and the cutting of the Worth County Centennial Cake. The newly digitized collection documents this local history and marks the county’s 166th anniversary. Mary King Givens, project coordinator for the Worth County Historical Society, says, “The 1953 Worth County Centennial was an extraordinary event involving communities throughout the county, hundreds of participants and dignitaries, Governor Herman Talmadge and Senator Richard Russell. Preservation and access to this collection ensures its survival for many years to come.” The photographs largely document the white population of Worth County, though a small number of African American residents are also pictured. Some photographs depict white individuals dressed in costume as Native American members of the Creek Nation. Considerable space in the centennial program is dedicated to describing the history of the land, including early settlers’ interactions and conflict with Native tribes and the founding of the county itself. The program goes on to list facts about the county, events and celebrations planned for the centennial, and the large number of residents and county leaders involved in planning the celebration.
