John Philip Adams Baytown, ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elizabeth Stephens" <Elizabeth.Stephens@geac.com> To: <TXFANNIN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2003 11:50 AM Subject: [TXFANNIN-L] Bonham Book - "Era Has Gone but Memories Linger On" First of all let me clearify, this is a book primarily on Bonham not Fannin County. There is no index and the book is organized by topic, but just thumbing through searching for family bio's... Sid Smith Morgan Spivy Sitzter Ed M Curlee Ross Eugene Risser, Sr. Harry Payton Steger Joe C Denton (pic w/ wife) Then, in another area of the book are excerpts from the Bonham Daily Favorite, 12/8/1938... "First Stockholders of First National Bank" - lists these stockholders and a brief bio for each... "Business Firms Here More Than 20 Years" - lists these business and a brief bio for each - with pics for many There are 2 pages of pics from a 1920's parade There are pics of delivery wagons, trains, construction, early town square buildings, streets, social groups, nursing groups, schools, school groups, people... There's even a pic of the "race track at Lake Saint Clair at the end of Agnew Street" (I never knew Bonham had a horse race track!). Pages of old home pics: Shortridge, Kincaid, Crawford, Dunn, Scarborough, Bradford, Brownlee, Foreman,Carlton College, McClellan, Rayburn, Biard, Halsell, Teague, Clendennen/Carleton, and a couple that are unidentified. ( I would assume many of these are gone today.) ==== TXFANNIN Mailing List ==== How can just one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE ??
