These unidentified photographs are mostly from the Pierce, Wilson and Szpor families of Palo Pinto County, Texas. The Pierces and Wilsons lived around Gordon, and the Szpors lived in Thurber and Strawn before moving to a farm near Gordon.

• Unidentified Couple (79 KB)
  This is labeled as Albert and Viola (Wilson) Crawford, but it is not Albert. The lady looks like Viola but could be a relative. This picture belonged to Cora Wilson Pierce, Viola's sister.
• Unidentified Twin on Right (897 KB)
  Other half of "unidentified twin on left." I wonder if they are Mona and Myrhl Jiant, born 1903, who were first cousins to Lela Pierce Carson.

  This photo is broken in half and was too large to scan together. This is from the collection of Epple Carson Archer.
