The Watson Brown Foundation Junior Board awarded the Shields-Ethridge Heritage Farm a grant so that historic documents generated by the family and the farm business could be archived and preserved for future research. A selection of 100 items will be digitized and placed on the website of the Digital Library of Georgia. (Please note: the items for Shields-Ethridge Farm are not yet available online.)
