I just found out about the centennial of Little Switzerland, the mountain resort town in North Carolina that is celebrating its 100th anniversary this summer.

It was founded by my great-grandfather, Supreme Court Justice Heriot Clarkson, and fellow investors as a summertime resort.

I had this photo of the summer congregation of the Church of the Resurrection; it was around 1939 and the Rev. Thomas Clarkson was leading services.

For more information on the centennial, see littleswitzerlandcentennial.com
