Probably taken in Stephenville, TX, these pictures were
taken by W.B. Praytor Studios. Johnie Myrtlene Hairston, my grandmother, was
the only daughter of Phillip A. Hairston
and Lodema W. Criswell. These pictures appear to have been taken in the early
1890s. |

At one time, this was thought to
be a photo of Mattie Hairston Chisum Thompson and her daughter Stella. If
so, the photo would date at about 1890. However, the hair and clothing
styles are typical of the late 1860s. The young girl could be Mattie. The
woman would not be her mother.

Phillip Hairston and sister, Permelia Hairston Noah.
This picture was labeled Terrell; however, This is definitely the Phillip as
he matches the man in the picture in front of the house. The woman was
identified by Juanita Glegorn as her "Aunt Mellie" (Permelia). |

This picture (left), once one of my many pictures
of unknown children, has always been a favorite of mine. Pictured are some
of the children of Floyd and Ora Thompson;
Juanita, Clarence, Lucille, and Bowie. I meet Juanita on September 8,
2001 in Oklahoma. Juanita was ten years old when my grandmother died in
1927. She told me things about my grandparents that even my father did not
know. Juanita remembered visiting my grandparents and remembered my
father as a baby. She tells wonderful stories. Juanita is an extremely
talented artist. She painted this portrait of my grandmother (right) and gave
it to me during my visit. |

Clarence Thompson, Tom Thompson, and Floyd Mayo. Tom Thompson wrote the
caption under the picture. He says that Floyd may be related to Amos Smith -
a Thompson cousin. Floyd is also related to the Hammett family, my Bryan
cousins. |
