Mystery Picture 090930

Here is a three-pack of pictures of Grandma, Ellen, and John. The slides are from June 1973 and are from the place Grandma was baptized -- Jimmy Gee's pig hole (per the slide frame).

So here's the mystery -- who is Jimmy Gee and where is the pig hole? I'll bet there are pretty good stories about both the baptism and the return visit to the site.

UPDATE

Susan spoke with Grandma about these pictures, and, I have to say, Grandma has the best baptism story I have every heard.

"The ditch was dirt at the time, with a wooden head-gate. Grandma's sister, Aunt Marian, accompanied and insisted that Grandma should wear a 'nice dress' for her baptism. The bishop was a farmer and told all the kids to just show up. Grandma was 9 yrs old. The boys were told to go to one side and change, and the girls to the other side. After it was over, she and marian went home. Grandmas said she tried real hard not to sin again, but in church the next day she and another kid wrestled to see who would help an old lady who had dropped a 'hat pin' in the isle...they both wanted to be good and helpful... and they ended up head butting each other in the middle of church. It didn't knock her out, but she's pretty sure the other kid went out cold for a minute or two."

These pictures are from slides developed in June 1973.
