Additional Comments: Many thanks to the individuals who shared the class pictures. Special thanks go to the many "over 60" family members and Bertie County friends who diligently labored to identify the children and teachers in the photos. We must remember that some students were the children of sharecroppers, thus were less well-known to classmates because they moved out of the community after attending school for a short period of time. Some children started school late and some, because of illness or other factors, missed a year of school thus weren't with their original class. Some did not live in the immediate Powellsville area. These factors made it more difficult to identify many of the students. Too, memory does fade over the years. Pictures made available by Lynn McCarthy. Send additions/changes to Virginia Crilley.
