Tina......I'm so excited......well, at least thrilled...with the Shawnee High
School yearbook information! Don't laugh....it is just pretty cool that your
library has these copies and one of the dates connects for me. I don't mind
laughter at the photos.....you should here my 16 yr. old daughter and her
friends laugh at my high school yearbooks from the early 60's.......with the
helmet hair and everyone in sweaters and pearls. Girls always in dresses and
boys in coats and ties..........Oh my gosh! .....now there is a radical
clothes statement! <:)
Anyway.....my parents should be in the 1943 Shawnee High Year Book......plus
uncles and cousins of theirs. Would it be too much trouble to look for 4 or
5 people? 1943 was my mother's senior year......however she was a year and a
half older than my dad so I doubt if he were a senior. He did play in the
school band so there may be a group shot or something.
My mother was Sybil Irene PUCKETT.......I know she graduated 1943, maybe with
honors as she was in the National Honor Society.
My father was James Richard CANTWELL.......I'd look for him in the Jr. Class
for that year. Our records show he graduated in 1944. Or a band photo...he
played clarinet.
My mother's brother may or may not be there.......he would have been a
freshman.......they may not have even bothered with photos of underclassmen
in those days. His name was Hollis Ray (Pete) PUCKETT.
The other two are cousins......one is DELBERT GENO....the other is DEANNA
GRIGSBY .......they may neither one be there.......and I don't know the
class, if any, sorry.
Thanks ever so much for being the Shawnee contact person. Sharyn CANTWELL

CLAYTON, THOMPSON, TEAGUE, MIXER, JOHNSON, REESE, CAUGHRON, JETER and many
