Historical Society Program Videos – 2025

On April 27, the audience at Parnell LIbrary was treated to an interesting and entertaining program from Ruth Beaumont Cook, author of a book about Sylacauga Marble entitled, "Magic in Stone". The recent discovery of gravestones made of Sylacauga Marble in Montevallo City Cemetery prompted the invitation to Ruth from the Montevallo Historical Society.

Our January 2025 program was a tag-team presentation about Montevallo's once thriving bus company, Alabama Coaches Co. Telling the bus company's interesting story and showing photos and graphics was Jim Brown, son of the company's owner Wyman Brown. Jim was assisted by MHS program chairman, Clay Nordan.
