Notes:

  • Here are 3 photos that my mom's Aunt Beatrice Thornton Keeling took circa 1915-1918. I've enclosed mom's email along with her captions for each (below each respective photo) for you to post onto the Navarro County Website. Happy Easter and regards, -Russell Smith Forwarded Message: Dear Russ:- I'm attaching captions for the three school photographs of students at Hardy's Chapel, 1915-1916, and Harmony Hill, 1917-1918 (students in upper grades) and one of the entire student body. It should be noted that all of these are by the courtesy of Beatrice Thornton Keeling who made them available to me. Thank you so much for scanning the pictures and forwarding them and these captions to Eric Wood. He will see that they get to the webmaster of the Navarro County website. (Note, includes the Hardy's Chapel Photo)
