Im not sure can't get any one to tell me but I think number 4 is Ender Gray
cause he is the other Padgett boy.

This is the house that John and Mary Padgett moved into and raised all
their children in. This house is still standing. Well it is in bad    
shape and the family is talking about how it might have to be destroyed
Hard to beleve that such a big family grew up in a little two bedroom
home like this. After John Padgett died the kids got to gether and   
decided that the youngest boy should live there with his wife and take
care of his mother Mary Frances. So Aubrey and his wife Martha lived  
in this house and raised their two children Wendle and Marcella. I do
not know all the people in the picture. It was taken July 1976 after
Wendle Padgett's funeral. Most of the people in the Picture are his 
children and stepchildren. Do know the lady in purple is on of Fay
Padgett's Wives Elizabeth Padgett.

John and Edna are the children of Hazel and Leland Padgett
Wendle is the child of Martha and Aubrey Padgett Wendle is the 
child in the middle

I had to put this in here. I just wanted you to see how time seems to 
have stood still in Koleen. Other then newer cars it seems as if the
town never changed. For what ever reason Progress has turned her head
on Koleen Indiana and she stays a sleepy little town.

My mother tells a story about how all the peony flowers were picked so
they could be used to put on the graves for Memorial Day. She said on
this day they had a big wash tub full of them. So they took a bunch 
and put them in Mary Frances arms and took this picture.
