   EUGENIUS A. NISBIT, attorney and prominent citizen of Albany, Georgia, was
born in Macon, on September 20, 1861. He is the son of James G. Nisbit, born in
Madison county, on February 20, 1828, and his wife, Mary Winfield, born in
Eatonton on August 18, 1837. The father enlisted in the Jacksonville Artillery
and served three months. He was later appointed judge of inferior court of
Macon. James G. Nisbit was the son of Eugenius A. Nisbit, the first, who was at
one time judge of the superior court of Atlanta.

   Eugenius A. Nisbit, of this brief review, was educated in Macon high school
and Mercer College, graduating from the latter in 1880. He then engaged in
railroad business and came to Americus with the old S. M. Railroad. He read law
in the meantime, and in 1897 was admitted to the bar, since which time he has
given his entire attention to the legal profession. In 1910 he was elected to
the legislature by the Democratic party, to which he gives his political
allegiance.

   Mr. Nisbit is a Mason of the Royal Arch degree, and has twice been master of
the blue lodge. Pie is a member of the Presbyterian church, and is not married.
