Thoughtful Thursday~ Blanton - Ellis Reunion 1930

This is a photo from the 1930 Shelby, N.C.  reunion of the George Washington Blanton family. The man on the back row, right hand side in the bowtie is my Grandfather, Wilburn L. Parrott, beside him, my Grandmother, Ethel Blanton Parrott. Right in front of Wilburn, is Fannie Crouch Blanton, wife of my Great grandfather, Craton Rone's brother, Hero 'Quit'  Blanton.
Hero Quitman was a brother to Craton Rone Blanton (my Greatgrand), who died in a motorcyle accident early in life. Opposite end in the dark coat with fur collar is my Great grandmother, Lizzie Ellis Blanton Hager. 

Seated in the middle of the clan, is George Washington Blanton, my 2nd great grandfather.

Interestingly, there is an unknown face in the window to the right of my grandpa..peering out.
