V. E. Langston Store The Virgil Erastus Langston Store Postcard. Located in Tarrant County, Texas. This picture was dated 12/15/1911 on the back. The postcard was sent to his mother. V. E. Langston was Dorothy Langston Kee's father. Dorothy was Billy Kee's mother.

V. E. Langston is the last man on the right, with his arm on the wall. I am currently working on the family tree of my secret sister from Church. When I contacted her great grandfather for information and pictures, this picture of his grandfather and store was one of them. His name is Billy Kee of Powderly, Texas. I do not know where it was exactly located in Tarrant County. I am assuming since Virgil Erastus Langston was living in Tarrant County on the 1910 census, that his store was there also. |
