Old family pictures

(My Grandmother ) Iva Mae Petty, Bruce, Mama, Exa, Martha and Brenda. This picture was probably taken at Mama's house. Mama is my great Grandmother. Years??


This is My Grandmother and Grandfather. Iva Mae Petty and A.D. Petty.  It looks like thier front yard. My Grandaddy drove a Red Wing Truck. I think Mom said he hauled Gas. When I was little my Aunt Barbara whom was the youngest child would sing a song she made up to us. It went like this., "My Grandaddy drives a Red Wing A Red Wing all over the town". It was a catchy tune.
My grand mother worked at Regal Glove factory.
My mother told me  that my yGrandmother made friends with several women that lasted for years at the factory. They went to one of their homes and had a picnic one time. She remembers it was something unusual for them to do. They mostly stayed home all the time, except some Sat nights they went to the drive-in in Greenville. It was mostly westerns or the Bowery Boys, because that's what her Daddy liked. Mom said she hated Randolph Scott. He was her Daddy's favorite.
