From HISTORY OF ATHENS and CLARKE COUNTY by H. J. ROWE, published 1923: "Claude F. Crymes, alderman from the Fourth ward, was born in Franklin County, Georgia, July 22, 1874. He attended school in Carnesville, Ga., pursued the vocation of farming until he was twenty years old. He moved to Atlanta in 1894 and worked five years with the B. Van Winkle Gin & Machine Works. From 1899 to 1903 he served as machinist with A. A. DeLoach Mill Manufacturing Co. In 1903 he moved to Athens to be superintendent of the Oconee Oil & Refining Co., which had recently opened their new plant on Oconee Street. That company sold out to Southern Refining Company, a subsidiary of the International Agricultural Chemical Corporation. The plant was sold in 1915 to Hodgson Oil Refining Company of which organization Mr. Crymes is still the superintendent, in charge of manufacturing operations. Mr. Crymes was married to Miss Lutitia Stanley, of Atlanta, in 1901. They have two daughters, Nora and Myrtle Lee." |
