Mike Watson sends detailed caption for photo 1938 MR School The photo is one of three extant of the school group. It was posted last week by Tara Hadley-Hansen, who had scanned it from the archives of Edward Hadley. Click on headline for photo with Mike Watson's detailed caption By Mike Watson This is one of at least three photos of this school group. Two photos are almost alike, taken the same day, except in one the teachers are sitting in front of the students. In the second, the teachers are standing at each end, and in this one, the plaque with school and year are almost totally covering the face of Ruby Cape (Coffey). The students and teachers were identified by my mother, Ruby Cape Watson and her sisters, Ella Cape Bunch and Gladys Cape Bunch on several occasions in the 1980s and 1990s. Front row, sitting on ground: Ernest Jones, Teacher; Roscoe Antle, Teacher Second row: Ben Huddleston, Delpha Cape (Grant), Will Ed Cape, Ilene Blakey (Reeder), Buell Hadley, Ruby Cape (Coffey), Kathleen Huddleston (Powell), Maxine Huddleston (Dykes), Fay Hadley (Willan), Walter Burchett Third row: Coba Helm (behind Will Ed Cape), Marvin Cape (behind Ilene Blake, Norman Green, Ernest Cape, Woodrow Morrison (behind and left of Woodrow Morrison), Pauline Huddleston (Wright), Pauline Cape (Grant).

Some of the same students are present in this photo, but there are additions. It was taken at a different time, as clothes are different from the other two, but it is the same year.However, our dad, Carl Watson, is in this third photo. --Mike WatsonComments re photo 41519 Melson Ridge School 193738 This story was posted on 2011-08-28 12:27:38
