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.

Wow. Each face tells a different story. Powerful photo.
I wish I knew their names and a little something about each. There has to be some amazing stories among them.
I also found myself wondering about who they were and the school they attended.
I am hoping someone will see the picture and recognize a student and can share the name of the school these students attended. I wish I knew more about the photo.
Is there a date? I wish I knew their stories too! At least if their names were on it, you could look for their stories. I wonder if the school records are available somewhere for that year?
I think the picture is 1920s , maybe 1930s. The children are similarly dressed in a photo dated before 1925. I don't think there are records but I am keeping my eyes open.
