THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE BELTED GALLOWAY SOCIETY, I N C .
Georgia and South Carolina Bound
President Jon Bednarski
Sylvia and I headed down I-75 to Georgia in August to visit a member
farm. This trip however, would have a slight detour as we stopped west
of Atlanta to pick up our new truck camper. As we have traveled
around the U.S. visiting farms this year, the challenge of staying in motels and eating in restaurants can certainly take its toll! Call us gypsies,
but the camper will give us great comfort and a place to call home while
traveling.
The state of Georgia has 272 registered cattle and 12 member farms.
Our farm visit was to White Sulphur Farm which is owned by Jane &
John Hemmer Jr., in Gainesville, GA.
Talk about a piece of history, their
family farm dates back to the early
1800’s and at that time was several
thousand acres in size. But, with the
pressure of the urban sprawl, it now
consists of around 400 acres. Jane’s
dad and family raised beef cattle on
the farm for many years while living
in town. Interestingly Gainesville is the self-proclaimed chicken capital
of the world. Jane and John decided to move back to the farm in 1978
and built a magnificent home. Being the house nut that I am, I was impressed by their 15’ wide by 45’ tall stone fireplace in their great room
and the polished brick and stone floors throughout.
Jane, who was a former County Commissioner and State Senator,
oversees the operation of the farm with the help of Ricky Hopkins, their
manager. John, an orthopedic surgeon, enjoys farming on the weekends
and recently added a few Texas Longhorns to the herd. The Hemmer’s
son, Lee, and his family built a beautiful
home on the back of the farm and their
daughter Mary lives in nearby Toccoa,
GA.
As we toured the farm with Jane, we saw
her grass fed Beltie herd that gets rotated
to fresh pasture every few days. Jane and I
had something in common besides our
Belties, we are both supervisors for our County’s Conservation District.
We also got to see several of Jane’s clay sculptures in a studio John built
her using reclaimed building materials.
I must say the more Beltie owners I meet, the more interesting and
diverse I find our membership to be.
Our next state visit was South Carolina. There are 335 cattle registered
and 15 member farms. Our stop was at Stones Throw in Marietta,
owned by Dick and Lisa Williams and is located in western South Carolina in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Dick and Lisa’s 85
acre farm is part of an original 500 acre farm that Lisa’s dad and family
still own. In addition to the 85 acres, they either lease or use an additional 150 acres for hay or pasture. If
you have been involved in the
Beltie breed long, chances are
you have met Dick and Lisa at a
show, sale, or an annual meeting.
Dick & Lisa have been great
supporters of the Society by offering top quality cattle for sale to
startup farms and longtime members. Dick currently serves on our
Beef Technology and performance Committee.
Dick raised American Simmentals prior to acquiring his first Belties in
2001. He was a member of the Simmental Board of Trustees from 1990
– 1994, then again from 1996 – 1999. Dick and Lisa’s original Belties
came from Driftwood Plantation (SC) and Fearrington Village (NC).
Although their Beltie brood cows number just 15, Dick is doing some
very interesting work with the breed. Dick has 10 commercial cows that
have been bred to a topnotch registered Belted Galloway bull, and are
ready to calve this fall. Another 20 commercial cattle are recips of Beltie embryos that will
also calve this fall.
Dick’s excitement
for our breed and his
crossbreeding was
very apparent as he
showed Sylvia and
me around his farm.
Dick also has a 60’ x
60’ cattle handling and sorting barn that would make any of us proud.
The hospitality and friendliness Sylvia and I have experienced
throughout the 14 states and 14 member farms we have visited makes
me proud to be a member of this organization.
Just 34 more states to go!

the current By-Laws regarding junior membership. The current By-Law state that junior membership ceases on a member’s 21st birthday. By implementing the following change,

In Memoriam
Mary C. McClellan
Leeds, Alabama
The Belted Galloway Society, Inc. is saddened by the passing of Mary C. McClellan of Leeds, Alabama July 23, 2012
at her home. Mary served as the Secretary/Treasurer of The
Belted Galloway Society, Inc. from 1986 until her retirement
in 1995. In the nine years of her tenure, the Society’s member numbers and registered cattle population nearly quadrupled. Supportive committees developed which expanded services to members and prospective buyers to include newsletters, press releases, breed promotional events and auction
sales.
Mary was chosen as the fourth recipient of the Harry T. Burn
Award, announced at the Fearrington Center, North Carolina
in September, 1995. Known to all Society members as the
helpful voice on the telephone, Mary worked tirelessly during her nine-year tenure as Secretary/Treasurer to build the
organization and further the breed. Mary gained high esteem
for her knowledge of cattle husbandry, her willingness to
help and instruct new members, and dedication to Belted
Galloway Cattle. At age 90, Mary continued to raise Belted
Galloway cattle with two animals still grazing on her Cedar
Valley Farm in Leeds. Mary is survived by her friends and
care givers, Pam and Ken Garrison.
Tributes from Belted Galloway breeders include:
Mary was a great lady, a leader in breeding Belted Galloway
Cattle, American Saddlebred Horses and Hackney Ponies.
We send our love and respect and deepest sympathy, especially to Kenny Garrison, who cared for her during her last
years.
Martha Aitken,
Huntsville, Alabama
We have missed Mary over the years. The Belted Galloway
Society wouldn't be what it is today if it wasn't for Mary. She
was a great cattle women and a good friend.

Mary was a great friend and helped us buying and breeding
Belties when we first moved to our farm in Leeds. We met
some nice people through her buying and selling our Belties!
She was a lot of help and always available when we needed
her!

fund. Prizes will be awarded for the 13 photos that are used on the calendar. First place receives a $200 credit with CLRC for membership,

a breeder we must be sure he is well conformed, tracks properly, has good legs
and feet, and exhibits good weight gains. We should have data available on his
birth weight, 205-day weaning weight, and yearling weight. If he's reached
breeding age (around 18 months), it's definitely a plus to have his semen checked
for quantity and motility.
Any data available should appear in your advertisement along with his birth
date and the names of his sire and dam. Further, it is required that registration
numbers be included on bulls advertised for sale in the Hotline and
newsletter.
