| Alonzo Fields (1900-1994) Born at Lyles Station, Alonzo Fields served as a butler at the White House. He was also the first African American Chief Butler at the White House. Fields was employed at the White House for 21 years, serving Hoover, Roosevelt, Truman and Eisenhower. He authored a book about his experiences entitled "My 21 Years At The White House." Alonzo is also the subject of the play "Looking Over the President's Shoulder," based on his real-life experiences. “Perhaps the most important advantage of working in the White House was that I acquired a sense of America’s destiny.” – Alonzo Fields |
| The Alonzo Fields Gallery is a tribute to Lyles Station's most notable son. |
