NOTE: The following information was transcribed from an original document in the possession of the submitter on 09 January 2007. The document is a program from a graduation ceremony that has been passed down in my family since my grandfather's graduation. I believe this is an 8th grade graduation, since I also have the 1911 program for my grandfather's graduation from Columbus High School. My grandfather George Earl Perry, Sr. is listed below as "Earl Perry." His parents were Stella Carrie Howerth and Albert Perry. The address was given by his maternal uncle, Ira Woods Howerth (only brother of Stella Carrie Howerth).
