Avery Street

History Beneath our Feet notes:

Avery Street runs less than 100 yards, roughly north-south between Linwood and Burnette. It was opened prior to 1919, when it is listed in the Hill City Directory. The probable namesake is John Moses Avery, an executive of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co. and large landowner in the Hayti area in the early 20th century. The John Avery Boys and Girls Club is named for him.
