Welcome to the tenth installment of Cecile’s Scrapbook – the 1930′s scrapbook of my grandmother Cecile White Howard of Surry County, NC. Missed the earlier posts in this series? Catch up here: first installment, second installment, third installment, fourth installment, fifth installment, sixth installment, seventh installment, eighth installment, and ninth installment.
The page below features newspaper clippings from what I assume was the local paper for Dobson and/or Surry County, NC. The wedding announcement is that of Cecile’s cousin Thomas Holyfield. Many great Surry County names are found in the sports articles.
The commencement exercises for Dobson School of 1935.
Individual graduate cards include the following names: Pauline Martin, Mr and Mrs W Lewellyn Reece [perhaps teachers?],Mr and Mrs Sparger [?teachers], Effie Venable, Eva Collins, Jim Dan Hemmings. I love the squashed cup on the bottom of the page from Ford Snow at the senior picnic.
Enjoy!
