Looking for Old Photos

At the present time I am working on a project (it is going to take forever) for which I am seeking help of any persons who may have grown up in the Ringling/Cornish area.

I am looking for photographs of places located in Ringling, Cornish, Mountain Home, Claypool,Asphaultum,Terral,Union Hill,Atlee,Grady,Oscar, Petersburg, or any of the places that no longer exist.

For example Cornish at one time had a cotton gin. Most of hte places named above had Post Offices (not all however). Union Hill had a school at least as early as 1908. Cornish had a school well before statehood.

Does anyone reading this board have in their possession photographs taken before statehood of places (any place or businesses) they would be willing to share. In this day and age, if you have a computer, more than likely you have access to a scanner.

I am in the throes of collecting information hopefully to write some sort fo "history" of the area in which I grew up and and seeking some old photos. I know the Ardmore public library has one of the cotton gin that used to be in Cornish.
