  ROSA PARKS LIVED HERE

Civil rights pioneer ROSA McCaULEY PARKS was
born on February 4, 1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama.
Shortly after her birth her parents James and
Leona Edwards McCAULEY, moved here to a 260 
acre farm owned by her grandparents, Anderson
and Louisa McCAULEY. Her father, a builder, 
designed and constructed the Henry County 
Training School for black students in 1914. After 
a few years in Henry County, Rosa and her 
mother moved to Pine Level, Alabama, to live 
with her maternal grandparents, while her father 
went north seeking new building opportunities.
