Hey Jann, That's my family, the William Smith family of Clovis, California. I remember that visit quite well! It was my first visit to Banks and Bradley County that I remember. I was only nine..... I think the correct date was July 1963 though!! (SMILE) Corrections on the names are Sammy Mills and Jerry Simone. Not listed were the names of the seven daughters of Robert Lee Davidson and Lillie Mae Nolan Davidson. They are Charlotte Davidson Parham, Maxine Davidson Smith, Edith Davidson Mills, Juanita Davidson Farris, Carrie Davidson Murphy, Robbie Davidson Sargent and Jean Davidson Simone. Juanita and Robbie have passed away. The other five are still living. Also not listed were these names, LaViney Aulds Nolan Burks, mother of Lillie Mae, and Lillie Mae's brother and wife, Troy Garland Nolan and Grace Vlela Seymore. Thanks for sharing that Jann!
