Note that some of these could be from the 40s (and probably
are).
I don't have any real way of knowing exactly WHEN these were taken, but
the 50's seemed to be the heyday of my grandmother's photography.
And why not! Her kids were growing up!
I haven't really set out to put these any any particular order,
either...that
would be a nightmare since I don't know dates. As usual, if you
can
help me with people, places, or times here, feel free to email
me. Enjoy!
My Father, Charles Carawan. This is a newspaper publicity photo from a Tideland EMC contest of some sort that Dad said he was the only one chosen from the state of North Carolina to participate in. | A '50s Olan Mills photo of my grandfather Doc Carawan. | ||
Dad again, in his high school basketball days, c. 1959. | This is a good one! On the left is Clifton Squires Sr., who married Fannie Harris after Gus Sr. died. On the right is Gus Ange Jr., his stepson and my great grandfather. Taken sometime in the early 50s in the Anges' yard at Wilkinson Station. | ||
Arnie Bell and Nellie Ange at a wedding (whose?) at the Wilkinson Church. | Arnie Bell's husband, Noel Levy. Not sure whose house
that is...it's possibly in Slidell LA, since that's where they lived. |

Waters, David's sister.

David Warren Waters (11 Oct 1897-Aug 1968) with his second
wive Lee Case and their daughter Carolyn Anne Waters, date
unknown. I think this was taken at Ersula's home.

On the left is Bill Ange. Not sure who the gentleman is on the right, but the back of the photo states his name is Clifton (Squires maybe?). | Betty Carawan Evans (9/20/1897-12/7/1983)
and her daugther Lucille Evans Carawan (2 Oct 1922-10 May 1998). Taken at my grandmother Alma's Wilkinson Station house. |

School picture of Billy Gene Carawan, a son of my great uncle Harvey Murl Carawan. | School picture of Roy Jarvis Carawan. But is this Sr. or Jr.? I'm guessing Jr. | ||
Lloyd Augustus Fentress, son of Lloyd Columbus Fentress and Ernestine "Teenie" Ange, as a young man. | Patricia "Pat" Ange, daughter of Dempsey Maryland "Bill" and Mamie Ann Tetterton Ange. | ||
Arnie Bell Ange, in the yard of the Ange House. | Another great uncle, Staton Carawan (23 Aug 1901-21 Mar 1962). Staton had what was believed to be cerebral palsy, and never married. I believe this was taken on the porch of the old Carawan house in Rose Bay. |
