Leslie Lindsay, a writer with ties to Adair Co., shares this old photo, given to her by her father, that she thinks dates to the 1930s. The photo was taken at the home of either Bert or Russell:

Left: (Lee) Russell Compton b. 1896
Middle: Cora Bell Compton Hyden (moved to Springfield, MO in 1920)
Right: Unknown; believed to be (Henry) Burton "Bert" Compton, b.1903 (son of Louvenia Carp Coomer Compton and George H. Compton).

Leslie writes, "If you happen to have a guess on the dates or locations of these photos, please let me know. I plan to be in Adair County April 8-10 for additional research, and perhaps to find the (remains) of any homes where my ancestors may have resided."
