McCown, Lavender and McFar
land is the new name for Tryon’s
oldest law firm established about
40 years ago by the late Walter

went to Washington, D. C. for a
brief stay in 1928 it became Jones

McCown went back into the firm
as Massenburg and McCown. When
J. T. Arledge joined the firm it
became Massenburg, McCown and
Arledge.. Mr. Massenburg moved
to Raleigh and the firm became
McCown and Arledge. Mr. Arledge
was called into World War II and
on his return established his own
law office and the senior firm op
erated as M. Ryan McCown until
the partnership was formed as
McCown, Lavender and McFarland.
