Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

Made me smile. The parents look so proud and quietly happy. Wondered what their story was.
What a gorgeous picture! I love how everyone's eyes are pointing right at the camera and how Ada's hand is resting on her husband's shoulder.
They probably had an interesting life. He was a pastor of one of the local churches and their six children likely kept them very busy.
They do look happy, prosperous and content.
Wonderful photo! They do look happy, prosperous, and content. It's amazing how much a photo can show about how people feel.
They look like a happy family!! I love this photo!!
