Ona Elizabeth Johnson Boyd was the first lady to drive a car in Scooba; organized the first Boy Scout troop in Kemper County; and was the first scout master. She was involved in many activities during her 89 years. She was an avid Kemper County historian and her historical collection is now part of the library at Mississippi State University in Starkville, Mississippi. She is the mother of Beth Boyd Bounds of DeKalb.
