History

Col. Meyrick became manager and editor of the Americus Times.[3] His wife, Marie Louise Scudder Myrick, is said to be the first woman "in the South" to own and edit a newspaper.

Thomson Newspapers bought the Times-Recorder in 1984; Community Newspaper Holdings bought the paper in 2000 when Thomson decided to leave the newspaper business.[4]
