Clark Photo can be seen at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/al/chambers/photos/gph437hooperjo.jpg Image file size: 53.1 Kb Born in Wilmington, North Carolina on June 9, 1815, the son of Archibald Maclaine and Charlotte De Berniere Hooper, Johnson Jones Hooper would migrate at the age of twenty to join his brother's law firm (George De Berniere Hooper) in LaFayette, Alabama. It is here in 1840 that Hooper helped take the census for adjoining Tallopoosa County. The experiences he encountered with the backwoods frontier families served as material for his first story in William T. Porter's Spirit of the Times, "Taking the Census in Alabama", in 1843. After the success of this story, Porter encouraged Hooper to write more humorous sketches for the Spirit, a New York publication. On December 15, 1842, Hooper married Mary M. Brantley of LaFayette, the daughter of Green D. and Elizabeth Brantley. The 1850 Census of Chambers County lists Johnson J. Hooper, age 34, wife Mary M., age 25, and sons William A. and Adolphus S. Hooper's occupation is listed as attorney at law and he owned one slave. Hooper would become nationally recognized in his day as the creator of fictional character Simon Suggs. His first Simon Suggs stories appeared in the East Alabamian, of which Hooper was editor, in 1844. At this time the Hoopers were living at what would later be known as the old Samuel Spence home on Jefferson Street. In the Preface of his first book Hooper gives his residence as LaFayette, Chambers County, Ala. March 1845. Hooper was a passionate Confederate and was deeply affected by the politics of his day. He was an avid enemy of the Democrats and wavered between his support of the Southern Whigs and the Know Nothing parties -- often using Suggs as an agent of propaganda for his own political views. He established the Montgomery Mail in the 1850s and edited it until 1861. Hooper was appointed Secretary to the Provisional Congress of the Confederate States and moved with the Congress from Montgomery to Richmond, Virginia. One June 7, 1862, Hooper died two days before his 47th birthday. Shortly before his death he had converted to the Catholic faith and was buried in Shockoe Hill, Richmond's Catholic Cemetery. For 88 years his grave had no marker, but in 1950, eleven of Hooper's modern day admirers bought and erected a suitable monument over his remains. Although Hooper spent most of his life as an editor and politician, he is best remembered for his humorous sketches in the Spirit and his books, Some Adventures of Simon Suggs, Late of the Tallapoosa Volunteers and The Widow Rugby's Husband.

Lee, Sr. House Built ca. 1890s John T. Lee, Sr. (1851-1926) and wife Frances D. Lee (1860-1948) had this once fine country home built ca. 1890s. The pryamidal-roof house was typical of houses being built by prosperous cotton farmers in the 1890-1915 period. The type appears to have been based upon earlier Georgian style houses. A study funded in part by the Alabama Historical Commission in 1975 stated that this house type was recorded in highest percentages in east-central Alabama, in Chambers and Tallapoosa counties, where it made up nearly 20% of the total dwellings. A wide central hall divided the main body of the Lee House with two rooms on each side. The parlor was the front right room. The dining room and kitchen were in a wing located on the left side of the main body, separated by another central hall. Five fireplaces served by three chimneys built of rock and brick, heated the house. Interior walls were sheathed with good quality beaded, tongue & groove boards. Handsome mantles and wood trim were in each room with 12-foot ceilings. When photographed, the original front porch that wrapped around three sides of the house was gone. Turned wooded posts with gingerbread trim, porch railings and balusters were typical architectural elements found on this type house. The Lee House was located 2 1/2 miles west of Stroud where County Road 245 intersects County Road 244. In 2003, the house was destroyed by fire.
