Wilson Family Gathering

Gathering of the James Wilson & Florence (Brumley) Wilson family. My dad is on the left in the front row. His Dad is on the right end second row kneeling. The other kids in front belong to Mary (Wilson) Ratchford. Back row right is Les Wilson and his wife Dorothy is right in front of him. Ray Wilson is the tall one in the middle of the back row. Ruth Wilson is right behind James Wilson who is wearing a vest. I forget the year but would guess its the late 1930's.

Wilson Family Photos & Family Info

The next series of recordings will be my Dad talking with his Uncle Ray Wilson. Most of the conversation is about family history. As a preface to that here are some photos relating to the conversation as well as the handwritten notes my Dad was taking during the conversation. Included on the tape is Ray's second wife Louise, a fantastic woman and myself:
