History
"Berry was founded in 1902 by Martha Berry (1865-1942) as a school for enterprising rural boys when few public schools existed in Georgia. A girls' school was added in 1909. Berry became one of the nation's most successful educational experiments, combining academic study, student work and interdenominational Christian religious emphasis. Berry has an excellent record of sound growth. A junior college was established in 1926 and a four-year college in 1930; graduate programs were added in 1972."

"The iron hub at the wheel's center was given to Berry by the Republic Mining and Manufacturing Co. following Miss Berry's request to Joseph Thomas Waters, the company manager in Georgia and moved here from Hermitage, several miles East of this site."
