I had lots of relatives that came from this town from about the mid-1800s. I'll bet they even used to ride on this train.

A long time ago, there used to be a train depot on this spot. When I was developing the film, the lid came off the tank and flashed the entire bottom edge of the roll. That's why there's a slight glow along the bottom.

This is Mrs. Amelia Caroline Walker, my Great Grandmother. She was my Mother's Father's Mother and I just learned who she was by turning the picture over and reading the back. This was taken on her 84th birthday, on May 13th, 1951 and she died less than a year later on April 11th, 1952. Her maiden name was Wright, which was what my Mother's maiden name was also.
