Byrnes Park Prophet Honored For Venerable Work
James Byrnes, once mocked for transforming a 40 acre farm near Byrnes Park into a recreation and beauty area, is now celebrated as its creator. He spent eight years developing the park with no city funds, relying on his own labor and a single donor, C. P. Wilson, the city engineer. His salary as park commissioner was 450 a year, and he worked daily, even while transplanting trees from Black Hawk creek to Cedar Heights. Byrnes later spent winters in Los Angeles with his daughters, who remain active in ministry and business.
