<h2>Uncovering the Legacy of M.W.H. “Alphabet” Collins and Georgia’s Agricultural Revolution</h2>
The Bartow History Museum invites the public to a special evening lecture.&nbsp;Mary Norton will present on the life and work of M.W.H. “Alphabet” Collins, including the founding of the Georgia Institute of Genetics and the history of the former Georgia Institute of Genetics seed processing barn. Once located at the center of groundbreaking cotton research, the now-abandoned barn served as a key site in Collins’ pioneering work in agricultural genetics.
During the lecture, attendees will learn about Collins’ lasting impact on Georgia’s cotton economy from 1916 through the 1970s and how his work continues to influence agriculture in Georgia today. Norton will also explore why Collins became known as one of Georgia’s best-kept historical secrets and discuss the significance of the Georgia Institute of Genetics to Bartow County’s history and future. Through the story of Alphabet Collins, guests will gain a deeper understanding of the people, research, and innovations that helped shape modern agriculture in Georgia.
Admission is free for museum members and $9 for non-members.
<h3>About the Speaker</h3>

Alongside Dr. Bob Norton, she has provided decades of leadership, conducted in-depth historical research, and delivered engaging presentations and events at Valley View.
