Hello, Last year in July one of my cousins, Madge Evans of Lagrange (Troup County), GA, past away. Madge was the only child of Fred and Dessie Benefield Evans. Madge had never married. She raised show dogs. In the last years before her death, her best friend's daughter always took care of Madge's dogs. She agreed to take the dogs upon Madge's death. Madge left her everything. Angel being the wonderful person that she was, contacted my Aunt and ask if we would come get the personal things as she felt they needed to go to family. We were the only family she knew to contact. I took my mom and her two sisters to Lagrange for personal stuff. Because I've been working on the family history for a couple years, I was given the task of identifying the pictures and other things. I have sorted the pictures in family piles (I've looked at these pics probably 20 times and see a different person each time). Now for the reasons I sent this email. First, I found a small leather bound notebook. At first glance I thought it belonged to a child, with the scribbling and drawings. A second look determined it was a ledger. . for plowing and how much they were paid. It should where they bought meat and sold vegetables. Some of the dates ranged from Jan 1907 to Oct 1908. But the jewel in the book is the name and dates of birth of the Benefield girls (this would be the same info one would find in a family Bible.) Second, bring me to the list of names I found on some of the pictures. The dates range from 1956 - 2000. I know some of the pictures are older than that, but they are not dated so I can not say when they were taken. Pictures are of: The Benefield Girls: Mattie, Susie, Lena, Eula, and Dessie ages 2 – 9 (?) As adults Sue Kelly (?), Lena Gibbs, Eula Cash, and Dessie Evans BENEFIELD, JOE BENEFIELD, N.J.
