TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 512 FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 261 IN WILLIAMSBURG COUNTY TO THE WILLIAMSBURG COUNTY/GEORGETOWN COUNTY LINE AND THE PORTION OF COUNTY ROAD S-5-22-6 FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 261 TO ROSE HILL CHURCH IN GEORGETOWN COUNTY "JOHN JAMES SNOW II AND JOHN JAMES SNOW III (BUBBER) HIGHWAY", AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THIS DESIGNATION.
Whereas, the Honorable John James Snow II was born in 1897, in Henry, the son of J. J. and Lottie A. Carraway Snow; and
Whereas, in 1920, he received his Bachelor of Science degree from Clemson College; and
Whereas, from 1935 through 1936, and from 1949 through 1953, he served as a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. In 1954 he was elected to represent the 6th Congressional District on the South Carolina Public Service Commission; and
Whereas, his son, the Honorable John J. "Bubber" Snow III, was born in 1929 in Kingstree and earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Clemson University in 1954; and
Whereas, in 1957 "Bubber" married Penelope Grainger and together they reared three children; and
Whereas, like his father, "Bubber" was a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. He represented Williamsburg, Horry, and Georgetown Counties from 1977 through 1994, and from 2001 through 2003; and
Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to honor two of our most distinguished members of the South Carolina House of Representatives and sons of the Palmetto State by having a highway that spans both Williamsburg and Georgetown Counties named in their honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of South Carolina Highway 512 from its intersection with South Carolina Highway 261 in Williamsburg County to the Williamsburg County/Georgetown County line and the portion of County Road S-5-22-6 from its intersection with South Carolina Highway 261 to Rose Hill Church in Georgetown County "John James Snow II and John James Snow III (Bubber) Highway", and erect appropriate markers or signs along this highway that contain this designation.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
