In 1905 Dr. Luther Martin Freeman graduated from the University of Tennessee Medical School in Nashville. He came to Granville on horseback in 1906 to set up his practice. He married local girl Ethel Maddux and settled into the community. Dr. Freeman practiced medicine until shortly before his death at the age of 94. He performed dual roles in the community, as he was also Granville's longest-serving postmaster. Picture: Images of America Granville, TN by The Granville Museum, Inc., pg. 75.
