Photos courtesy of Andrea Clark<\/p><\/div>\n<p>By Lauren Stepp<\/p>\n<p>Growing up in Massachusetts, Andrea Clark had heard tell of her grandfather, an African American man by the name of James Vester Miller who built some of Asheville\u2019s most iconic buildings in the 19th and 20th centuries. But it wasn\u2019t until she moved south in the late 1960s that she truly understood the magnitude of his legacy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I came here, I knew the stories my father had told me about this family,\u201d says Clark, who is best known for her award-winning photographs of Asheville\u2019s East End before urban renewal. \u201cBut I didn\u2019t know the extent of my grandfather\u2019s work.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_50951\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50951\" class=\"wp-image-50951\" src=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/History-James-Vester-Miller-with-grandkids.-Photo-courtesy-of-Andrea-Clark.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"525\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-50951\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">James Vester Miller with his grandchildren. Photo courtesy of Andrea Clark<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When Clark moved to Valley Street, she stayed with her 96-year-old cousin. On Sundays, when the two went out to eat, her cousin would point out countless homes, churches and businesses that \u201cPa\u201d built.<\/p>\n<p>Those structures included the likes of St. Matthias Episcopal Church, the Asheville Municipal Building and even The Young Men\u2019s Institute Building (YMI), which was designed by Biltmore architect Richard Sharp Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Inspired, Clark vowed to formally recognize her grandfather\u2019s contributions to Asheville. Doing so took several decades, but finally, after receiving a grant from CoThinkk, she launched the James Vester Miller (JVM) Historic Walking Trail last June. This month, Clark is encouraging locals to follow the trail to honor Juneteenth, a holiday celebrating the emancipation of slaves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe 10 percent of Asheville\u2019s Black history is actually acknowledged,\u201d says Clark, \u201cmy grandfather\u2019s work included.\u201d<br \/>\nFittingly, the JVM Trail guides visitors past some of Miller\u2019s commissions, including the J.A. Wilson Building on Eagle Street. Built in 1924 for J.A. Wilson, a black entrepreneur who ran a barbershop, the building soon became a hub of African American businesses. According to the 1927 Asheville City Directory, three doctors had offices there, including Lee Otus Miller, Miller\u2019s son. Other tenants included real estate agents, hairdressers and dentists.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the J.A. Wilson Building is a cornerstone of The Block, a predominantly Black-owned business area. The edifice is also a testament to Miller\u2019s ability to overcome adversity.<\/p>\n<p>Born to an enslaved mother and white father in 1858, Miller entered this world not long before the country launched into civil war. After the Emancipation Proclamation, his mother moved her three sons from Rutherford County to Buncombe, where Miller spent much of his youth picking up odd jobs at construction sites and learning the trade of brick masonry.<\/p>\n<p>In adulthood, he started his own company\u2014Miller and Sons Construction\u2014and specialized in churches and commercial buildings. Miller left an indelible mark on Asheville, because of both his talents and his character. According to Clark, \u201cHe should\u2019ve been the mayor of Asheville,\u201d because of his willingness to help others, no matter the problem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important that young people hear his story,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s the story of how a Black man found his passions and built a city.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information, including the trail route, find the James Vester Miller Historic Walking Trail: Asheville on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/James-Vester-Miller-Historic-Walking-Trail-Asheville-100243818929736\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and Instagram.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Growing up in Massachusetts, Andrea Clark had heard tell of her grandfather, an African American man by the name of James Vester Miller who built some of Asheville\u2019s most iconic buildings in the 19th and 20th centuries.
