This photo has no title and was taken in 1959. It represents post-Civil War families that were loyal to the South. The doll represents homes that were left behind and that families would just pick up and leave, leaving things like dolls behind. The trash on the floors show the house’s dishevelment and lack of inhabitants. This was something that was going to happen to the people whether they liked it or not because it was happening for the better.
I was born on May 15, 1925 in Normal, Illinois and moved to Kentucky after marrying my wife Madelyn McKinney.
