John Trammell of Grand Junction, Colorado donated this variety to SSE in 1991. John's donation letter stated: "they were the beans that my father's family was growing in eastern Tennessee when my mother first met her new in-laws ca. 1920." John remembered that during his own childhood in Kentucky, they grew them every year. John's mother always called them the "Trammell beans" since they'd been in the family for "some time." Used by the family as a snap bean. SSE Accession # 103567
