Clayton, North Carolina was founded in 1795 by Captain John Robertson as a coastal post on the Yadkin River. The town grew up around the military and naval installations, which remain today including the Clayton Marine Base. In 1814, captain James A. Macon donated land to form what is now the macon State Park. The town of Clayton became a U.S. Coast Guard station in 1912 and continued to serve as such until 1993 when it was renamed for Admiral Samuel J. Lockyer Jr., who served as Commandant of the Coast Guard from 1915-1917 and 1919-1921. As coast guard stations have been relocated throughout America, so too has their gift history with respect to gifts given to them by citizens during various periods of their service or ownership; this paper will focus specifically on gifts given to the Clayton station from 1913-1993 inclusive. The first gift given to the Clayton Coast Guard Station was a sawmill located at present day intersection of Old Hwy 56 & US 14 (and later Memorial Dr). This millinery business was started by Mrs Sarah Goodloe in 1894 and continued until her death in 1958, when it passed through her daughter’s hands to her son David Goodloe III who ran it until his death in 1984; after that time it went through other family members before being purchased by current owner Donny Knoeler in 1992 who continues its operation along with other important businesses within town including general store and post office which are still open today an integral part of local commerce and community life! Goodloe Furniture Store shut down operations due to Hurricane Pam in 2005 but reopened following damage done during storm surge salvability efforts; prior thereto tenant Florence Goudreau operated shop out of home for many years providing much needed employment within town! This well noted store closed abruptly again after Superstorm Sandy damaged rooflines Oct 2013 however soon reopened under new management - thank you Florence for all your help over these past few years! In additionumerous other small businesses operating within town since “the good old days” have also received significant donations or support from citizenry during various phases or times they were active: some examples include Cafe Italiano which currently stands vacant but has been frequently used as playground between events held at Victory Park due primarily to lack of accessible space elsewhere; ladies auxiliary meeting room also hosted numerous functions inside/outside facility starting circa 1970 thru 1995 thanks largely à Pauline Huey especially during special occasions such as function dress code changes!
