The records of the Rotary Club of Savannah state that John S. Banks and Henry J.F. Ludeman were the co-founders of the club. Through John Banks' business contacts (Piano Distributors), Ben Lee Crew, VP of Atlanta Rotary and John E. Shelby of Birmingham, International Rotary VP, were invited to Savannah to assist in the starting of the club. Twenty-four businessmen attended the January 5, 1914 meeting and eighteen joined. Twenty-four additional businessmen joined at the charter meeting on January 12, 1914. These forty-two men are the Charter Members of our Rotary Club. Attorney Edmund H. Abrahams applied for the charter from Rotary International. |
