Okay, the facial expressions are priceless, across the board. The teacher looks like he's had it, and the kids look as if they are taking great delight in frustrating the poor photographer.
I seem to see the word McCall written in white ink at the bottom, which makes me wonder if this is the McCall Creek community. Then again, the dark shakes on the building resemble the school house that was in Norfield.
The kids, if alive today, would be around 89 years old.

Maybe the teacher had a difficult time getting them to sit, stand still for this picture. They look like a group filled with energy and antics.
ReplyDeleteThat they do, Linda! Since it's rare to see people smiling and mugging for the camera in "early photos," (thanks to slow emulsion rates) this one was a fun one!
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely McCall Creek School 1935. I see my mother Edna Mae Jones (far left, 3rd row) then her sister Geneva Pauline Jones (3rd from left, same row), and their aunt, Mary Jones (4th from left). Mother was 10, Geneva was 11 or 12, and Mary was 11 or 12, depending on the date of the photo. The girl between Geneva and Mary was Marie Cupit.
