These pictures were in a drawer in the library. Apparently, the
owners did not reclaim them. Some of them have writings on the back or front and
if so I have included this. I have recognized some from being in the
History Book. As time permits, I will add to this collection.

I found this picture it is the old tin type in case front cover missing
at a garage sale in Montgomery county off of Calvary rd....
the lady said she had no clue as to who this woman is.
My son in law took it apart and looked on the back for
a name and there is no name at all. But according to her hands she looked
as if she has never
had to do any hard labor for this time period....

Turkey Creek Class of 1913 (Taken March 14, 1913) Check out this school
teacher! We just thought we had some mean ones when we were in school. She may
have been really nice but she really looks mean! Did you notice the barefoot
kids? Did you see the kids, one holding school book on far right, one
holding a clock with the time looks like 4:00, one holding a school bell., etc
pretty neat picture.
I think the little girl holding the bell is my grandmother Sweet. (Marion
Eugenia "Genie" Sweet) The boy on her left, I believe is Charles Adam Sweet.
The girl standing behind them has her hand on both of them --suspect she is
one of the older sisters. Some of the other girls and boys may be Sweets,
Smiths, Walkers.
If anyone can identify these folks PLEASE let me know
Peggy Goodwin .
If the pastors of the area churches could show this to the congregations in
the countyline area it would be great. The children of these children in the
class photos would be about 65++. Please help me identify these folks.
