An old Cooper Family Picture

For years I have had the pic of the old Cooper Family and finally decided this week that I should track people down and share it.  I don't know some of the people on the picture but on the back row are Uncle Jeff, Uncle Marvin "Skeet", Allen B. (my dad) and Uncle Ewell "Witt".      The woman in the middle, I think, is Miss Lillie, who married Grandpa but was the only Grandmother I knew.  Aunt Minnie Rimer is on the end.  If you know others, let us know.   The picture is made in front of Skeet's house, I believe.

I am talking with Gayle about this picture and he is sending me some other people who are FB.   Uncle Jeff had three children:   Mary, Bud (William Jefferson) and Linda.   Skeet had:  Imogene, Owen "Bud", James Allen, Gayle, Paul Hayden.    Daddy had:  Autry, Velna, Julia, Betty, Jennie, Jim, Rose Marie and Janie. (Autry, Velna and Jim are deceased).  Ewell had:   James Henry, Cleo, Bobby, Gaylene and Gwenadell.  Their sister, Maude, had two daughters:  Faye Byrum and Lorene Montgomery.   How am I doing off the cuff?        Daddy was big on "his people".  Maybe I will spend this Sunday trying to reconnect!   I enjoyed going to Melbourne to see Skeet and to Twin Creek to see Jeff and then to Ava, Missouri to see Ewell where he had Cooper Lumber Company.
