Addition:
I am the daughter of Arch Price,
granddaughter of Maria (Mary) Rose Price (Tessaro),
G-grand daughter of Madalina and
John Tessaro. My cousin
Michelle Plumley (Tessaro) sent you a
photo that has my grandma and her siblings when they were little.
Michelle didn't know the name of the
little one on our g-grandpa's lap. Her name was
Bernitta (Bernice), she was about 17
months old when she died. Grandma Mary
said it was from whooping cough AND pneumonia. She said the nurse told
g-grandma Madalina to put her in
hot water to break the fever, but it ended up killing her. My grandma
always tells us how pretty Bernice was! I
thought maybe you could add her name to the photo! Submitted by

The attached
picture was located by
Claude Lowery
(my
brother) and it shows a copy of an old picture of the
Trap Hill H.S.
Football Team in the very early 1930's. The picture has a marking from
the Vic Studio in Beckley and unfortunately, some of the names did not
get copied. My Dad,
Ivan Lowery
and Uncle,
Palmer Falin
are in
this picture.
Palmer and
Margaret Cox Falin
were in the first graduating class from the school when it was opened
in Surveyor, WV."
