Bethune, Mary McLeod, 1875-1955
Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records from the Mary McLeod Bethune Foundation located on the Bethune-Cookman University campus at 640 Doctor Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard in Daytona Beach, Florida. The foundation was established on March 17, 1953, as "a place to awaken people and to have them realize that there is something in the world they can do."
The foundation is housed in the Mary McLeod Bethune Home, which was inhabited by educator and civil rights activist Mary McLeod Bethune (1875-1955). Also known as "The Retreat," the home was built by African American A. B. Raddick around 1905. In 1913, chemist James Norris Gamble and Thomas White of White Sewing Machine Company, purchased the home for Bethune. On December 2, 1974, the historic house was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. In 2006, the museum closed for renovation and conservation. It reopened in April of 2011.

Daytona Beach (Fla.)
Description
An autographed portrait of James C. Murray, which is housed at the Mary McLeod Bethune Foundation, located at 640 Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard in Daytona Beach, Florida. Murray was the pastor of Stewart Memorial Methodist Church, located just down the road from the museum at 554 Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard. Originally called Stewart Memorial Episcopal Church, the church was founded in 1893 by Reverend Thomas H. B. Walker. The location of the congregation's first meetings is unknown, but a chapel was constructed at Second Avenue (present-day Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard) and Spruce Street. Funds for its construction were donated by retired minister Reverend M. L. Stewart, for whom the church was named.<br /><br />The chapel was demolished in the 1920s and a new, two-story building was completed in 1926, after being delayed by a devastating storm in 1926. The church was renamed Stewart Memorial Methodist Church in 1939, when the congregation reunited with the Methodist Church and was placed in the Central Jurisdiction of the Methodist Church, which was for African-American congregations only. On May 23, 1955, Murray attended Dr. Bethune's funeral. In 1967, the church changed its name to Stewart Memorial United Methodist Church. The congregation moved to a new building in 1973. The remaining structure was purchased by the City of Daytona Beach and converted into the Richard V. Moore Community Center, named after Dr. Moore, president of Bethune-Cookman College from 1947 to 1974.
