Biography
Alonzo C. Shuford (1858-1933) represented North Carolina as a Populist congressman, championing the hopes of rural farmers and advocating for fair markets after years of organizing alongside agrarian neighbors across the region.
He remained a familiar figure in his home community, offering steady counsel to young advocates and attending to civic causes until his final years, and he now rests with gratitude at Old Chapel Hill Cemetery.
