After looking at the photo you posted my sister and I were sure our father would know
these folks. Standing in the back roe center is
Roy Holmes and to the right is his wife, Kate Pounds Holmes. On the far right is
Aunt Dora Cribbs and her husband William Eaton (Uncle Pete) Cribbs. The children in
the picture are the children of Roy and Kate. My father is Bud Cribbs he is the son
of Doss C. Cribbs and Viona Pounds Cribbs Pope.
