| Title: | Allen D. Candler |
| Description: | Photograph of Allen D. Candler. He wears a suit and bow tie in this portrait. He has a white beard. Candler served as governor of Georgia from 1898 to 1902 and was a resident of Banks County. Candler County, created in southeast Georgia in 1914, was named for him. The last governor to be both a veteran of the Civil War (1861-65) and a Georgia native, Candler may have made his greatest contribution to the state after his retirement from politics, when he became the first compiler of Georgia records. |
