old photographs says Saline Co Ark on back
see the list below of old photographs, there are two of interest, see #5 and #8.unknown if whole group of people are related to the folks in 5 and 8, but since found together, would think probably so....good luck !
I discovered a wonderful cache of old photographs in a local antique shop, the owner is letting me post them.Many are marked from photographers in Leonard Texas.So many are named on the backs of the photos !Unfortunately the writer was a bad speller and the writing is very dim.If you happen to find family in this group, the shop is Yesterdaze Antiques, 1519 Main, Vernon TX – 940-886-6527(no financial connection to the shop or owner).Just can’t stand for such to not find family !Photos are circa 1890 – early 1900s.
Writing is hard to read so will do the best I can on spelling and will put ?? marks when I am in doubt.
