This photos was found at an estate sale in North
Carolina in the mid 90's |
|

It is mounted on gray card which
is embossed with the studio name of Simmons, Laurel Miss.

The
names listed below are in cursive on the
back, pencil on gray card, and are therefore difficult to read, the *
indicating names that are
illegable or missing. The 1920 and 1930 Census Records were used to
find Date of
Birth and Residence
and although a name and city is not a lot to go on the proximity of the
addresses is reassuring. Unfortunetly the census takers only recorded
those
present at the time of visitation so if a child was out playing down
the street they were not recorded.
I suspect that the "ME" who recorded the names was female judging from
the quality of the handwriting and the discipline required of creating
the record itself. The occasion was probably a birthday party and so
the most likely candidate is one of the two young ladies with the giant
bow in her hair.
Its a beautiful photograph and I sincerely hope some grandchild may
stumble upon it. Click on it for a larger version.
