Melson Ridge School, 1937-1938, with identifications



2011-08-28 - Cundiff, KY - Photo from Tara Hadley/Hansen-Edward Hadley collection. Melson Ridge School Group, 1937-1938: [Married names of females in ( ).]
Mike Watson writes: 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.
