Mount Berry, beside Rome, is contiguous with the main campus of Berry College and named for its founder, Martha Berry. She was born and lived at Oak Hill, the plantation home of her father, Captain Tom Berry, and devoted her life to educating the children of poorer families in the mountains.
Her school began in a log cabin built as a playhouse for her and her brothers and sisters shortly after the Civil War. In the late 1800s three small boys from Lavender Mountain came there for her first Sunday school lesson, and soon the cabin was overflowing. The work grew into a day school at Possum Trot, boarding schools for boys and girls and finally Berry College, and from 1900 the school grew under her direction into a 30,000-acre campus; more than 15,000 students had been educated there by the 1950s. She chose the cabin to stand for simplicity on the school seal, with a Bible for religion, a lamp for learning and a plow for work. Martha Berry died in 1942. The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Mount Berry as a town in 1935, and its charter was repealed in 1973.
