 Vincennes In 1926 Viola's yard In 1996, I posted the following message at the Knox County site.  Tonight when I visited the site I noticed that you had added a "pictures" link.  I
have a picture taken in 1926 in
Vincennes.  On the back it says, "Taken in
1926 in Viola's yard in
Vincennes, (sp) Indiana."  I would appreciate your
posting it and will hope that someone will recognize the people in the
picture.  I would assume they are related to my Taylor, Davidson, Robinson,
Charlton or Rooksberry lines in the area.  Thanks in advance.
