I didn't know the family but loved the picture and it's been on my wall for many years.
These folks lived south of my great-grandparents' homestead. With the little info I had,
this is Benson Plymate, Jr. His son is Alex Plymate who was a friend of my great-grandfather
Fenner D. Bullard who died in 1948. My grandmother was Zadie, wife of Steven F. Bullard,
my grandfather who died in 1999."
