"This picture was
taken about 1940 at the Ivy Log school in Union County, GA. Some
of the children's names are written on them. These are the only
ones we know. There are five children from Alabama in this
picture:
<>Dixie Smith, Dois Smith, Edna Smith, Eloise Smith, & Dot
Smith
(sister to Dois)
<>My grandfather, Cordie Smith worked with his uncle Shirley
Smith on
the Nottely Dam hauing logs to make the concrete forms for the
dam. Cordie's two daughters were Dois and Dot Smith in the
picture. The other children are also cousins because several men
in this family worked for Shirley Smith on this job. My mother
was only four years old but the teacher allowed her to go ahead and
start school anyway because she was walking to school with her sister
Dois and was at the school all day. We do not know the teacher's
name in the photo but would like to know. My mother, Dot Smith,
remembered three of the children's names Janie, Joyce and Stan.
<>We hope that someone else can identify the teacher and others
in this
photo, too."
