Petty's




This is the our Petty family at their farm in the "Red Hills", aka near Cohutta, in Murray County, Ga., c1937.  

Left to right:  In front: Sarah and Leonard Petty
Second Row: Janie Petty (and maybe Hunter), Viola Ridley Petty (Mother or mother-in-law to all there), Roy Petty, Opal Petty, and Osmo Petty.

In back:  Mary Jo Johns and Tom Petty (the only married couple in the picture). Missing are Georgia Petty Grant and Wallace Petty.



The second picture was apparently taken the same day, by the same clothes.  The people are the same except the addition of Wallace in the top right corner and you can see the house they lived in before it burned down.
