Old Homestead at Peach This house used to stand next to our farm on Peach Road in Giles Co., TN. I do not know who the young lady is. On the back it says grandmother. I know the home was built by Clarence Petty, but the only grandmother in that home during that time would have been mine and I do not believe that it's Clara Petty. It could be her sister Edith, but Edith did not have any grandchildren until I was grown, so the lady is a mystery woman at Peach.

This photograph was taken in the early 1900's on the Earl Shelton Farm. Earl Shelton was the school bus driver for several years
during the middle 1950's for Giles County (Minor Hill School).

I found this postcard in an album my mother kept with World War II photos and newspaper articles. I know that my father returned from Europe in July of 1945. He must have had leave and taken my mother to Pulaski in August of 1945. I have included the notation my mother made on the reverse side of the postcard. They celebrated the end of the war on VJ Day at this church.
