Lorynda,

Are there any other names on the picture? I knew a Lance Parrish in school
(Joplin) 30 years ago. Do you know what kind of transportation they had,
as church may have been within walking distance. Hill Street may be closer
to Webb City for churches, but don't know which ones were in existence at
that time. Is one of the names Harter by any chance?
