Historical marker sought in Jamesville

Sometimes, when the wind blows just right, echoing through the woods of Jamesville and out across the Roanoke River, a low, mournful, lonely sound of a “train” can be heard — reminding listeners of what once was. If Charles “Bo” Dickerson has his way, Martin County will soon have a more permanent reminder than the wind in the trees of a railroad bed that once existed here, connecting the Jamesville river to the Pamlico in Washington. Dickerson has set into motion a request for a N.C. Highway Historical Marker to commemorate the Jamesville and Washington (J&W) Railroad and Lumber Company that started here in 1869 and closed in 1897. The track leading to Washington was approximately 22.57 miles long and had one stop off in between. What was once known as Dymond City, a bustling town with a 32-room hotel, eventually died out when the railroad stopped running. The train made one round trip in a day, said Dickerson. “It put Martin County on the map big time,” he said. “Also, Beaufort County and even Washington County because of the lumber and produce and grain they hauled for the farmers.” Dickerson owns land where the Jamesville terminus was located and

Martin Co. native to discuss latest book

A Martin County native is coming back home to Williamston to talk about her third book. Leah Weiss, who was born in Williamston, left North Carolina around the age of 10. She spent the rest of her adolescence in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. This will be Weiss’ second time to visit Martin Memorial in recent years to discuss her books. In 2021, she visited to talk about her second book All the Little Hopes, which takes place in a town much like Williamston — the fictional Riverton — during World War II. Weiss said Williamston’s historic German POW camp inspired All the Little Hopes. Wiess considers herself “southern by grace.” “My roots run deep in the flat lands of North Carolina,” she said. Her first book, If the Creek Don’t Rise, set in Appalachia, sold over 100,000 copies. Weiss began writing full-time after retiring from a 24-year career as Executive Assistant to the headmaster at Virginia Episcopal School in 2015, becoming a best-selling author late in life. Ann Phelps, who retired as branch librarian at Martin Memorial in 2023 after 25 years, is now chair of The Friends of Martin Memorial Library. (The Friends of Martin Memorial Library

Jenkins: Health department treats generations

Martin-Tyrrell-Washington District Health Department’s Human Services Deputy Director Latonya Jenkins did not always know what she wanted to do for a career. When she figured it out, she poured her heart and soul into nursing. Jenkins grew up in the Indian Woods area of Bertie County, then moved to Martin County when she was 12. Upon graduation, she spent a semester at East Carolina University. “I did not do well at all,” she confessed. “My Mama [Shelia Roberson] got tired of me messing around. She threatened, ‘You are either going to Perdue [to work], or you are going to school.’” That was her wakeup call. “I got my booty in school. But I wasn’t sure what I was going for,” she added. Her stepfather, Elder Linvert Roberson (now deceased), whom she called her “Bonus Dad,” suggested nursing. “That is how it all started,” she said. At Beaufort Community College, the counselor encouraged her to go beyond her basic LPN — Licensed Practical Nurse. “When I told her I just wanted to do LPN, she told me, ‘No, I’m setting you up for RN [registered nurse].’” Jenkins received her associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) in 2000. “My first nursing job was
