At that time the Parkway had not been constructed from mile 106 at its interection with rte 460, for some 30 miles to Adney Gap. The photographs show Blue Ridge farmland and mountain terrain over much of the area I patrolled, from about mile 150 south to Mabry Mill. Alonzo Newton Hylton. We became very good friends and he was an excellent source of folk lore. He was the source for the "Uncle Newt" portrayed in the Parkway guide book I wrote. During weekends of the travel season, 1949, I was stationed at Mabry Mill to give visitors a tour of Mabry's Mill and shops. Newton was a great help as a source of info. Ed Abhuel is credited with some of the photo's. He was one of the foremost leaders calling the shots on how mountain culture would be portrayed. -------------------------
