The Herrin Family


This is the Herrin family. In the picture they are out in the field working. I suspect they are near the road and the person who snapped the picture just stepped out of his or her car and took it.

They look happier than if I was out hoeing.

This Herrin family lived down the road from Anna’s mother’s mother’s family between Cumming and Alpharetta, Georgia, probably in what used to be Milton County. Some of them married into Anna's Jones family.

I love to see old pictures. They had very little but seemed to be so happy.

Andrea,
"The more you have the more you want and the unhappier you are" - seems to be the general rule. Greed rules.
