Tennessee State Parks' All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory
Tennessee State Parks’ All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory By LinnAnn Welch In 2003, the All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory began in Tennessee State Parks with the intention of inventorying and monitoring biological features. The program not only provides much needed data to help better protect the creatures we know reside in our parks, but it will help us discover those thousands of plants and animals yet to be found in parks or even yet known to science. The inventory utilizes existing park staff, local universities and schools, community volunteers, and others with expertise or interest in biological topics. Professor Rex Barber and Volunteer State Community College students The ATBI is an on-going project in the Great Smoky Mountains record data in one of the permanent National Park, the first comprehensive biological inventory of its kind study plots for plants at Edgar Evins to be undertaken in North America. With the creation of a new State Park. (Photo Courtesy of Volunteer section of Tennessee State Parks, Natural and Cultural Resource State Community College) Management, a similar program started with the support of biologists from the Smokies and from non-profit Discover Life in America. For years, Charlie Tate, now director of NCRM, had envisioned state parks following the Smokies example. Resource Manager and long-time parks historian Jack Gilpin was chosen to supervise the ATBI staff. I was given the task of establishing the studies, developing protocol, and recruiting universities for each park. At the beginning of our ATBI efforts, representatives from approximately 20 universities, many state parks, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and Discover Life in America converged at Montgomery Bell State Park for a three-day meeting about ATBI. -

On the day of the historic vote, Rep. Harry T. Burn surprised everyone when he voted “yes” for suffrage. He placed the tie-breaking vote after receiving a letter from his mother encouraging him to “Hurray and vote for suffrage… Be a good boy and help Mrs. Catt put the ‘rat’ in ratification.” By doing so, Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the amendment and women gained the right to vote nationwide. -
Marion Scudder Griffin Collection
Marion Scudder Griffin Collection Processed by: Matthew Hicks 2014 Memphis and Shelby County Room Memphis Public Library and Information Center 3030 Poplar Avenue Memphis, TN 38111 Marion Scudder Griffin Collection Biographical Note Marion Scudder Griffin was the first female attorney in the state of Tennessee, as well as the first woman to serve in the Tennessee General Assembly. Born in 1879, in Greensboro, Georgia, little is known about Marion Scudder Griffin’s early life. In fact, an 1880 Greensboro census lists Marion S. Griffin as six years’ old, which places her birth year in 1874, five years earlier. Griffin worked for some time as a stenographer in Greensboro, where she became interested in law. Upon moving to Memphis, she worked in Judge Thomas M. Scruggs’ office as a stenographer. She also began studying for the acquisition of her own legal license. On February 15, 1900, she was certified by Chancellor Dehaven and Circuit Court Judge Estes for admission to the bar. Despite this, the Tennessee Supreme Court denied Griffin a legal license on the basis of her sex twice, in 1900 and 1901. Determined, Griffin began to study at the University of Michigan’s Law School, earning a Bachelor of Laws degree by 1906. She was one of two women in her graduating class. Returning to Tennessee, she spurred the state legislature to pass a law that would give women the right to practice law. Though she was initially “greeted with wisecracks and gaffaws,” she convinced the assembly and a bill was passed on February 13, 1907, and ratified by Governor Patterson two days later.1 On July 1st of that same year, Griffin was licensed by the Tennessee Supreme Court and sworn in as a member of the local bar. -
