Our featured speaker will be Raymond Cooper, a member of Cannon County Historical Society and a life-long resident of the Ivy Bluff community.

Raymond and his wife, Pat live on their “Century Farm.” He is retired and actively engaged in farming, a recognized, progressive and highly noted for his cattle grazing practices.

His subject will be “Early Settlement of Ivy Bluff” and “Why the Barrens were settled last.” He will also deal with the early settlers who stayed with emphasis on the Banks, Duke and other first settlers.

He will talk about the early schools, churches, cemeteries, early businesses, industries and a “legal distillery.” He will include the “War Between the States” activities in the area.

This will be a very interesting and informative presentation!
