Snap shot of
Dr. Walter Briscoe Wooldridge with his son Prince Wooldridge and his wife Alice Babbs Wooldridge
I want to share photos I have collected over the years from my Barnett, Vaughan, Vaughn, Wooldridge, Calvin, and Patterson ancestors. Some of the photos I have actually have labels. Some do not. If you happen to know who they are, please let me know by commenting. If you have photos you'd for me to share on this blog - send me an email and I'll see what I can do. I will not share any information about anyone still living. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Homer Milton Virgil Patterson - Funeral Announcement and Memorial Record
This is the funeral announcement and Memorial Record for my Great Grandfather Homer Milton Virgil Patterson. It says his father is Nathan Patterson - it'd be great if we could find out for sure. I found Linville H. Harty in the census records but not Delpretty (her married name is Poe).

It reads:
He was born on August 25, 1876 in Sparta, White, Tennessee to Franklin P. Barnett and Emily Catherine Randolph.
He married Ida Jane Vaughn before 1917. Together they had five children. Ben Vaughn Barnett on January 30, 1917; Floyd (Bela) Barnett on February 22, 1919; Emily Catherine Barnett on June 16, 1921; Donald Paul Barnett on June 13, 1923; and Ruth Jean Barnett on April 14, 1926.
They raised their children on a hard rock gold mine in the Rand mining district. After the mine closed they moved to Bakersfield where Floyd opened a real estate business, raised fruit and greyhounds. They were so poor that when the depression hit, they didn't even notice a difference.
He passed away on December 3, 1962 in San Bernardino, San Bernardino County, California and was buried in Bakersfield, Kern County, California at the age of 86.
