Could you put a date to the picture?
I recognize Merritt Taylor, Lorie Taylor, Russell Jackson, Tommy Lane, and Tommy Fountain, Plus Jimmy Burnette at the bottom, will have to study to pic again.
That should have been Russell Jacks
Additionally I recognized BLLoyd Woodall, Johnny Peavy, Blake Traylor, Billy Morris, and Danny Glover

You're asking about a date. Judging from the ones that have been recognized, it must be about 1902 or 1903. The Taylor boys are at least that old.
