In a late 1980s photo, Ron Davis nephew William Davis IV and his younger brother Max Davis explore Jakes Creek during a family visit to the Mebane family s Elkmont cabin. Donated photo Ron Davis Sr. was just 17 years old when he arrived in the tiny town of Clyde, completely alone.  It was 1967, and Davis, a Black man from Knoxville, was there to start the new forestry program at Haywood Technical Institute, now known as Haywood Community College.
