Patriot Grove takes root: DAR plants 300 trees in Grifton

GRIFTON — To celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, descendants of patriots were encouraged to plant a “Liberty Tree” in every state. But a local chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution decided on something more monumental. This week, the Susanna Coutanch Chapter of DAR will dedicate the America 250 Patriot Grove, where about 300 trees have been planted on 3 acres at A Time for Science in Grifton. A Veterans Day ceremony will celebrate the opening of the grove, which is designed as a living memorial “to honor those patriots whose courage, sacrifice and vision took root in the soil of the new republic of the United States of America.” Volunteers spent Saturday morning planting rows of native trees in a newly designed grove at the nature center along Contentnea Creek that welcomes thousands of schoolchildren and families each year. “It’s about the next generation,” DAR member Maggie Craig said. “We’re standing in the middle between our ancestors and the future generations. We’re standing in the middle of it right now.” At the national level, DAR marked the nation’s 250th anniversary by planting 250 trees in Yorktown, Virginia, to honor patriots who fought for America’s independence.

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

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
