Over the fifteen-years I and my family have published Historic City News, I’ve had several occasions to meet and talk with Civil Rights leader, Robert Hayling. It’s not every day you can speak with authentic figures in American history. I feel fortunate for those encounters and Dr. Hayling’s willingness to speak frankly with me about his experiences.
Just before midnight, in the wee hours of Thursday morning, Historic City News was informed of a fatal crash on CR-208, just east of Joe Ashton Road. St Johns County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the emergency 911 call, placed by the driver of the vehicle involved.

One does not have to travel to Paris, New York or London to see world-class art: here at Saint Augustine’s Lightner Museum there are numerous examples of major artworks.
Historic City News was informed Wednesday that Dr. Robert B. Hayling, the dentist who led the civil rights movement in St. Augustine, Florida in the 1960s, passed away at his home in Fort Lauderdale on Sunday, December 20, 2015, according to word received from his sister, Mrs. Yvonne Clarke of Sarasota.
