Wyatt Chapel School Photo of 1929
Top row left to right are my mother, Clairssa Juanita Main, her cousin, Inez
Main, and her sister, Reppard Clementine "Pat" Main. On the back of the photo
are the inscriptions, "Wyatt Chapel
Primary School Group", "teacher, Florence Fitzgerald", and the date
"1929". The teacher's name and date appear to have been added years later.
Florence Fitzgerald went to Pernell and taught there until her retirement. My
mother said that the school was often referred to as Wrinkle Sock. This was due
to the large number of poor families who could not afford new socks. She
remembers a small chapel within a few feet south of the school. Clairssa was 13
years old in the photo and is 92 years old as of 2008.
