Top picture: ^ The home of my great-grandparents, Beverly Johnson Quillin and Polly Ann "Sprowls" Quillin. Eventually their daughter, Opal owned the home.
Bottom picture: ^ A few doors down across the street was the home of Opal's sister, Cathleen "Corintha" Melvina Quillin Bagby.
Bottom picture ^ This location is symbolic to me. The stone at the top of the building is engraved with the name of the business, The Banner Publishing Company. Daddy was hired as a paperboy and years later he became an accomplished owner and publisher of The Vernon Daily Record.
Daddy is now taking me to Crowell, Texas, to see my Jones & McNair Family homesteads.
