Photos of Yesteryear
We look at these photographs and remember... "the good ole days"
not with rose petals but in the laughter and tears
of their children and their children's children. It
is into us that the lives of grandparents have gone.
It is in us that their history becomes a future.

Dedication of 'Eddie's Lane', honoring long-time campus bus driver; photo dated 1956.
Organized as a congregation in Otsego in 1842, the Methodists moved into this church building in December 1889. Charles Prentiss, a local businessman and former mapmaker for General Sherman during the Civil War, designed the plans for the church, which cost $7,500 to build.
This is the actual image of the Marriage License of Edwin C. Powless and Julia M. Naylor, my grand parents
This is a photograph of Margaret Jane [Wilder] Welsh Naylor 1882-1923, which is the mother of Julia Powless. Although the pictures says that it is Margaret and Charles Welch c. 1903. To the best of my knowledge this is her mom and I believe her father?
