    3. Becky, Yes that's all it says in the directory. Wish there was more. The photo, if I am not mistaken, is the north side of main st. I wish I was capable of enlarging the image in order to read some of the other signs and store fronts. My Mom would be a great help in that. Please do send a copy to me. My daughter has the means to enlarge and sharpen the images where she works. perhaps we can shed more light on things. I left Terral in 1974 but go back to the cemetery and see old friends when I can. I only live 50 miles or so from there but with work and a family it's hard to find the time.
