DURHAM COUNTY, NC - SCHOOLS - 1920 5th Grade Class Picture ----¤¤¤¤---- The picture can be viewed at: http://www.usgwarchives.net/nc/durham/5thgrade/5thgrade.htm The picture was taken in 1920 of the fifth grade class of Ms. Eva Neal. I don't know the name of the school, but it was in Durham. The names are on the back of the picture, but someone cut off some of the names at the bottom. Names 16 - 18, 31 - 32 are missing. My Mother is on the third row, fourth from the left. Mother told a story about one of the boys in the picture. I can't remember which one, but he could wiggle his ears, and nothing else moved. She kept practicing and trying until she could do it, too, and she really could wiggle her ears. I saw her do it many times. Born 19 April 1909, her name was Christine Wilkins, dau. of Charlie B. and Delia Wallace Wilkins, originally from Johnston Co. Mother and her family lived on Anderson St. in West Durham, and my grandfather worked at the cotton mill. I think it was Erwin Mills. The family moved back to Selma in Johnston Co. the next year, and she lived there the rest of her life. She and my Father, Robert E. Hill were married in 1934. One of her brothers, L. R. Wilkins, remained in Durham, for by that time he was married and had a family of his own. She had three more brothers: Charlie Van, James Clinton and Edward Skinner. She also had one sister, Pauline. 1920 - Fifth Grade Miss Eva Neal 1. Edward N. 19. Katie Jeffreys 2. Paul Taylor 20. Ophelia Wood 3. Dewey Peede 21. Margaret Phillips 4. Charles McBroome 22.
