Nellie Swann Noegel of Augusta died at her home on July 18 at age 96. The seventh of the eight children of John William Swann and Brightie Barker Swann, she was born and reared in Wrens, Jefferson County, Georgia.
She attended Georgia Teachers College (now Georgia Southern University) from 1944 – 1946, when she transferred to the University of Georgia in Athens, from which she was graduated in 1948 with a Bachelor of Science in Home Economics with a concentration in Foods and Nutrition.
The widow of Frederick William Noegel, Jr., her beloved husband of 54 years, she shared with him their home on William Street for 48 years. They extended their hospitality to foreign exchange teachers and students, to many pastors, and to family members and dear friends.
She was a member of the Jefferson Davis Chapter 2465, United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), in Aiken, South Carolina; of the Esther Marion Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) in Aiken, and was a charter member of the South Carolina Society, Southern Dames of America.
She joined the Hill Baptist Church in 1952, serving as church clerk for twelve years. She served as President of the Langford Junior High PTA and of the William Robinson Elementary School PTA, and she worked on many school committees.
After being graduated from the University of Georgia, she worked briefly for the Georgia Power Company in Athens as a home demonstration specialist before her marriage in September 1948. In the 1960s, along with Mrs Lois Jeffcoat, she established the Food Service Department of the old Forest Hills/Oliver General Veterans Administration Hospital in Augusta. Along with Mrs Jan Hudson, Mr Gene Gibson, Mr Millard Beckham, Jr., and her husband, Fred, she was one of the founders of the Summerville Neighborhood Association (SNA). The SNA was founded in Mrs Hudson's home on the corner of Gary and Gardner streets. Later, a public meeting of the SNA was held at Trinity on the Hill Methodist Church.
