Our Family

I found this picture in some stuff that my Mom gave me after Dad died. The handwriting is Gracie Fern LeCrone's. She titled the picture "Our Family" and the names read (clockwise): Dad (William C. LeCrone), Emery (Pa LeCrone), Mama (Sarah Elvira "Ella" Dyson LeCrone), Mollie (Ella's sister, Mollie Dyson Lawrence), Me (Gracie Reba Fern LeCrone), Grandma (Mary Druzilla Gaither Dyson), Lethia (Lawrence), Grandpa (John Wesley Dyson)

Who is Lethia? I don't believe I've ever heard of her.

Lethia was Aunt Mollie's daughter. She was born in 1920. Considering that Gracie Fern died in 1931 at the age of 16, this photo had to have been taken in the very early 1920s.

Check out how dapper Pa was! Look at that hat!

BTW, John Wesley Dyson was born in 1857. Mary Druzilla Gaither was born in 1859. John Wesley Dyson died in Woodward county in 1940.

William and Ella were married on October 2, 1907 - Exactly 100 years ago!
