Mt. Hermon pictured around 1922 along the Kentwood & Eastern Railroad. Photo from the "100 Years - 100 Photographs: Life Along the Tracks to our Community" by the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities at the D.A. Varnado Store Museum.
Mt. Hermon native Walter Thomas "W. T." Ott was the father of George Herbert "Sam" Ott and John Monroe Ott. And in 1911 W. T. was the first Washington Parish Fair President, an historical role in our parish. But this wasn't his only claim to fame.
