She was an educator, a World War II veteran, a farmer and a local historian.","After graduating as valedictorian from Clay County High School in 1933, she earned her first teaching certificate from Glenville State Teachers College in 1934, a Bachelor of Arts from Marshall College in 1940 and a Master of Arts from West Virginia University in 1942. During these years and until 1944, she also taught grades 1 through 8, mostly in one-room, Clay County rural schools.","In 1944, while at WVU, Walker enlisted in the U.S. Women's Army Corps. Following her military training in Iowa, she was assigned to work at the Pentagon and then, at the war's end, was placed with the Historical Division in Germany's American Zone. While in Weisbaden, she met Carmelo F. Testa who was serving in the U.S. Air Force, and they married in 1949. Soon after, they returned to the U.S. and Garnie Walker Testa returned to her teaching career in West Virginia. Beginning in the fall of 1950, she taught at elementary and junior high schools in Kanawha County and continued through the spring of 1958. In 1954, Walker Testa bought her family's Laurel Run Farm from her parents. Then from 1958 through 1975, she taught grades 11 and 12 (mostly English and History) at Clay County High School and continued farming.","After retiring in 1975, Walker Testa expanded her WVU thesis research into a full-length book manuscript, doing much of the writing during the cold winters on the farm. Although she completed it ca. 1983, The Ringing of the Bells: A Bicentennial History of Education in Clay County, West Virginia was not published until 2020. Many of the items in this collection were compiled and retained by Walker Testa, but her niece, Karen Jo Walker, is responsible for organizing the collection, editing/publishing the education history volume, and compiling much of the genealogical research. Karen J. Walker, Ph.D., retired, is an archaeological and historical researcher.","Includes the papers of Garnie Wilma Walker Testa (1914-1999) and genealogical research about the Walker-Testa family. The papers include material retained from her high school, college, and graduate school years, like graduation photographs and academic texts – all in Series 1 Subseries 1. The collection also includes documentation of her military service in the Army during World War II, featuring items like field guides for military procedures, photographs of herself and peers in uniform, and travel books acquired while serving internationally – all in Series 1 Subseries 2.
