"Atha Thomas Jamison, b. March 5, 1866 at Murfreesboro, Tenn. Was ateacher, ordained as Bapti st preacher 1895; spent most of his life inchild welfare work, Supt. of an orphanage [the Con nie Maxwell Orphanage,at whose press the 'Record of the Thomas Family 1772-1903' by Mary AnnT homas Pope was published]; was a Democrat, also Rotarian and Mason, andauthor of several books. Married Emma Caldwell Oct. 3, 1889; died Aug.9, 1947. ... A more extensive history of Ath a Thomas Jamison is in1932/1933 issue of 'Who's Who in America'."
From History of South Carolina, Volumne 3 edited by Yates Snowden, Harry Gardner Cutler:
Atha Thomas Jamison. His ordination as a minister of the Baptist Church in 1895 was the signal for the beginning of a career of crwded usefulness, and for twenty years. Mr. Jamison has been on of the leading men in the ministry of the church of South Carolina.
He is a native of Tennessee, born in the historic city of Murfreesboro March 5, 1866, son of Robert D. Nd Camilla (Patterson) Jamison. His father was a teacher and held such offices as county supertendent of education and principle of the Murfreesboro High School during the early youth of Atha T. Jamison.
The latter grew up on a farm, and had a sound training at home and in local schools. Most of his broad literary education was acquired by following the Chautauqua courses of reading for eleven years. In 1885, he was appointed secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association at Charleston, South Carolina, and that year he began to qualify for the ministry, a vocation for which he felt a special call, and was a student at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary at Louisville, Kentucky, from Oct, 1804, until Jun 1895. At the latter date he was ordained by The Citadel Square Baptist Church in Charleston and in July began his duties as pastor of the church at Camden. He quickly acquired a well earned popularity justified by his splendid talents as a preacher and his influence as an organizer and co-worker, especially among the younger people of the church community. When the Baptist Young People's Union of South Carolina was organized at Orangebur he was elected president and was re-elected at other meetings at Greenville, Batesburg and Columbia. For a number of years he edited the Baptist Young People's Union Department in the baptist Courier.
The institution that has most greatly benefited by Mr. Jamison's ability and work has been the Connie Maxwell Orphanage at Greenwood. He was made superintendent and treasurer of this institution in 1900. He is an ideal administrator of such an institution as an orphanage, his personal qualities endearing him to his little charges, while his business abilities are all that are required for the management of the finances and other problems directly connected with such an institution.
Mr. Jamison married Miss Emma C. Caldwell on October 4, 1889. She died December 17, 1900. On June 7, 1904, he married Mrs. Margaret Wallace Caldwell.
