Whelchel Meaders was raised around pottery; his grandfather was John Milton Meaders, great-grandfather Christopher Meaders, and his father L.Q. Meaders. L.Q. and his brothers Casey and Cheever learned from their older brothers, Wiley, Caulder and Cleater.
Though Whelchel knew how to turn and burn at an early age, he didn’t really get into pottery until he retired in 1991. He was in the military almost a quarter century, including the U.S. Navy during the Korean War. Then he worked as an engineer for the state Department of Transportation 34 years.
