Identification:  The children kneeling in front are not yet identified. The man kneeling on the left end is too shadowed to recognize. Seated left to right: Unknown, Callie Partain Ford, Unknown, Minnie McCullar, Etta Elliot, Norma Partain her son Robert, Ollie Partain Gentry, Lola Vancil Partain.  Standing left to right: Hazel Nixon Partain (?) Ocie Theodore Partain (?), W. A.(Lon) McCullar (with hat on), Albert Estil Partain (?), Ed Ford, Muriel Tankesley Partain (?), William Arthur Partain, Charlie Edwin Partain with his son Lanny (me) standing in front of him, Fannie Rucker Partain (?), Oliver E Partain (?), Beulah McCullar Partain (my mom, holding and unknown child), Elige Gentry (?), and an unknown woman standing in front of him.

The question marks indicate I am really guessing.  I would appreciate any positive identifications anyone could provide.

Robert, the infant on Norma's lap, was born in 1946.  I was born in 1941. That would make me 5 or 6 years old in this picture, and would date the picture at about 1947.
