(His name could have been Patrick or Payton) He was born probably around 1890. I have a beautiful picture that was my grandmother's of a young man and woman, probably their wedding picture. On the back is written "Pate and Ollie Smith". The pic. was taken at Berry's studio, Grant Street, New Decature, AL. Pate looks to be about 20 and Ollie ca. 17.
