| Anecdote* | 1908 | George Goodwyn Joynes, teacher and school superintendent, was born at Onancock, Accomac county, Virginia, September 6, 1856. His father was Tully A. T. Joynes, an Accomac planter of the old Virginia type, who was a magistrate for twelve years under the ante-bellum constitution: and who was later in life postmater at Onancock, which office he held until the date of his death. Mr. Joynes' mother was Sabra Polk Fitchett, a granddaughter of Captain William Polk, who fought in the Revolution and was one of the leading men in Virginia in his day. He grew up in the country until he was fourteen years old; and after that time several years were spent in a country village. He worked on the farm on Saturdays. The financial failure of his father, consequent upon the losses that resulted from the War between the States, prevented Mr. Joynes from completing his collegiate education. He attended Dickinson college at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, but left after his sophomore year. The college, however, recognized the value and distinction of his later work as scholar and teacher; and in 1896 he received at its hands the honorary degree of Master of Arts. He began the work of life as a teacher in an " old field " public school in 1875. The desire on his j^art to help develop and advance the recently adopted public school system in Virginia, then quite unpopular with many of the people of his section, induced Mr. Joynes to make teaching his life-work. From the first he showed aptitude as an instructor and unusual disciplinary power; and when it was determined to establish a graded school in his native town of Onancock, he was selected to do the work. He filled the office of principal of the Onancock high school for twenty-five years; and gave up the position at the end of that time to become superintendent of public school for Accomac division. Mr. Joynes is now (1908) serving his second term as superintendent of public schools of Accomac division, which embraces one hundred and fifty-three public schools, and a school population of ten thousand three hundred and fifty-three. He has written and published a "Teacher's Handbook; A Uniform Graded Course of Study for use in Public Schools," which has received the high commendation and endorsement of the superintendent of public instruction of Virginia. Mr. Joynes is a Mason, and was secretary of his lodge for four years; and has written papers and delivered lectures on the subject of Free Masonry. He is a Democrat in politics. He is a member of the Baptist church; has served as superintendent of his church Sunday school for five years, was for many years clerk of the Accomac Baptist association, and was the founder of the Accomac Educational association, which numbers one hundred and twenty members. When at school and college he was captain of the baseball and football teams, and he was an enthusiastic supporter of those games, in which he still finds his recreation and exercise. Mr. Joynes married November 25, 1880, Sallie Wright Northam, daughter of Thomas A. Northam. They have had five children two boys and three girls all of whom are now (1908) living. His address is Onancock, Accomac County, Virginia.
