John C. LeBey architectural drawings Descriptive Summary Repository: Georgia Historical Society Creator: LeBey, John C., 1905-2002. Title: John C. LeBey architectural drawings Dates: 1923-1987, undated Extent: 30.92 cubic feet (615 rolls, 1 box, 2 oversize folders, 1 oversize presentation board) Identification: MS 1956 Biographical/Historical Note John Courtenay LeBey (1905-2002) was born in Savannah, Georgia, to William C. and Gussie LeBey. He attended Savannah High School and received his Bachelor's degree in Architecture from Georgia Technical University. In 1927, LeBey attended L'École des Beaux Arts in Fontainebleau, France and graduated with a Diploma of Architecture. After completing school he worked for the National Park Service at Fort Pulaski in Savannah and also at Fort Matanzas in St. Augustine, Florida. During World War II, LeBey put his successful private practice on hold and used his architectural skills with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, serving there until 1946. LeBey was an accomplished architect and preservationist. Throughout his career he contributed to the history and preservation of Savannah's downtown built environment and was responsible for completing more than 60 projects in Savannah's National Historic Landmark District. One of his finest contributions to Savannah's history was the renovation and restoration of the Davenport House. His work is also evidenced throughout the state of Georgia and in Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas. In 1973, LeBey was named a fellow of the American Institute of Architects and in 1984 was granted the Ben Fortson, Jr. Award for Civic Beautification and Conservation by Georgia Governor Joe Frank Harris. -

The Howling Dawg June 2014
THE HOWLING DAWG JUNE 2014 "… the long, hot summer…" 16th Georgia Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Company G "The Jackson Rifles" The Heat of Battle During a recent living history program I was speaking to a group outside, in the midmorning warmth. The students were wisely clad in shorts and other suitable garments but still they complained, about the heat. Comments on their class surveys cited the temperature as a major criticism; not that we could do anything about the temperature of a date and time they had selected. I, of course, was in -1- full uniform and accouterments when the predictable question came: "aren't those clothes hot." Yes, I was a perfect torrent of sweat but I have always been philosophical about such things - it "just goes with the territory. Besides, I always liked a good hot battle and can correct the condition of excess heat much more effectively than I can compensate for a lack of it. However, any heat or cold, rain or drought I have had to endure as a re-enactor is about like a "gnat on a camel's back" compared to what the soldiers and civilians of the 1860's faced. The War was fought just after the end of a meteorological period that climate historians often call the Little Ice Age. This era, lasting roughly from 1300 to 1850, featured frequent climatic shifts, with bitterly cold winters switching to periods of heavy spring flooding, often followed by mild winters and subsequent droughts. The trend toward cooling that characterized the Little Ice Age had moved toward warming with plagues of temperature fluctuations that could strongly affect the actions of the armies. -
Download Our Suggested Colonial Coast Birding Itinerary
Colonial Coast Birding Itinerary Looking for the best birding locations along the Georgia Coast? Colonial Coast Birding Trail Georgia's vast network of rivers, marshes, and barrier islands provides ideal habitat for hundreds of species of birds, from nesting wood storks to painted buntings. This "trail" is a string of numerous sites along the Georgia coast straddling U.S. 17 and Interstate 95. Four of the sites (Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge, Jekyll Island, Cumberland Island, and the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge) have been designated Important Birding Areas (IBAs) by the Georgia Audubon Society. With more than 330 species of birds to watch for, the staffs of visitor centers along the way have maps and plenty of bird- watching suggestions for both skilled and novice birders. Each site along the Colonial Coast Birding Trail is unique. Many sites offer visitors the opportunity to watch birds and visit 18th and 19th Century historic places. Other sites are located on lands and waters that were once part of early plantations dedicated to growing rice, indigo and cotton. So whether you want to see a bald eagle soaring over a coastal river, an endangered wood stork feeding its gawky young, sanderlings chasing the waves on a sandy beach, or a great egret standing motionless in a placid pond, the Colonial Coast Birding Trail has something for you. North to South Tybee Island - North Beach Description: Tybee Island is the northernmost barrier island on the Georgia coast. This popular vacation destination offers great birding opportunities. One of the best birding spots is located along the beach at the north end of the island.
