Today’s post is the above photo (be sure to click to see the full image). I don’t know much about the image other than who the people are. I estimate it was taken in the late 1930’s. I’m not sure where it was taken (possibly somewhere in East Armuchee, as that’s where the people are from, though I suspect it could have been taken somewhere along Pocket Road) or why everyone posed for this particular shot. But it’s a fantastic image, so I wanted to show it to you. I don’t have a story to tell or a history to recount. Sometimes, a photograph speaks entirely for itself, and this is one of those images.

Moving left to right, the people above are as follows:

• Burke Pope (driver, barely visible in the shadows)
• Anderson Nuckolls
• Rebecca Underwood (leaning against buggy)
• Homer Underwood
• Ann Underwood
• Louis Keith (behind Ann)
• Georgia Mae Richardson (who married Burke Pope)
• Bennie Pope (in front of Georgia)
• David Grigsby (in front)
• Billy Grigsby (behind Georgia, Billy is David’s father)
• Louis Hunt (far right)

A special thanks goes out to Martha Dell Grigsby Richardson (sister of David Grigsby, pictured here). This photo is from her collection.
