Tammy Yates's Comments
The photos with captions or names are only the possible identifications.(Except
for Carl Grey and Robert O'Neal I know who these two are but not really why
they are with my families photos and thought others might like to see them.)
The photos with just unknown are probably Yates or Booth families. The
photos that are label tintype are old tintype photos that may possibly be
from Robert C. Bailey. Clarence and Eva (Booth) Yates moved in and cared for
Robert C. Bailey before his death. Robert C. Bailey was the father of Eliza
Bailey that married James Archibald Yates(Clarence's father). The last
catagory is Claude unknowns. Claude Yates was Clarence's brother. He was a
singer with several groups (Florida Boys is the only one I know about for
sure). The person that has these photos said they were friends of Claude's.
I know that he spent most of his adult life in Chicago, IL. He
returned to Vernon when he was old. He died in the last few years. From the
subjects and they way they are posed I think several of these photos are of
various singing groups. I also included a photos that is supposed to be of
the last hanging in Vernon. I thought the web page might like this. I was
told James Archibald Yates attended this event but can't find him, maybe
others can identify some of their kin in this picture. I don't know the date
or anything else about it. Also the picture identified as Maddox School,
this is only a possible id. Thanks so much for your help and I hope these
photos can be of some use.
