Charles S. Miley
1891-1981
Charles
S. Miley moved to Fort Pierce in 1914 from Mississippi. He served in the
U. S. Army during World War I. After the war he studied for a time at the
Sorbonne, in Paris. Miley returned to his job at the Fort Pierce News
Tribune following these studies. In 1925 he became the paper's city
editor. Charles wrote a weekly column during the late 1970's called "Miley's
Memos". These "memos" relate the early history of St. Lucie County. He was involved in bringing a
community college to our county and served on the board of trustees of Indian
River Community College. IRCC's learning resource center on the main
campus is named in his honor.
