Cotton Belt SLSW No. 678 Train At The Sulphur Springs Depot On A Snowy February Day In 1948 ...




Two of Dudleys Great Grand Parents on his mother's side lived in Sulphur Springs. That is the family home. Pretty sure that is Dudleys Maternal Grandmother and Great Aunt in front of the house. Don't know who the third kid is. Photo was taken between 35 and 40 years before the picture at the Depot. Dudleys Great Grandparents owned a music store in Sulphur Springs. They took a big financial hit during the Depression when they paid the debts they owed but a lot of the people that owed them money defaulted. Happened to a lot of honest business people during those times. Interesting that there is snow in both pictures. It does not snow very often in Texas!
