      Keith - I thought I'd add the information I have in my database for the family in this photo. The Henry Bascom Lemaster & Virgie Florence Harris Family.

      Henry Bascom Lemaster b 27 Jan 1880 Johnson Co, KY d 21 Aug 1959 Johnson Co, KY s/o William Davis Lemaster & Minervia Jane Slone married 20 July 1899 Virgie Florence Harris b 29 Oct 1884 Johnson Co Ky d 15 Feb 1978 Johnson Co, KY d/o Rev David George Washington Harris & Catherine Wheeler. Both Bascom and Florence are buried in the Lemaster Cemetery, Johnson Co., KY.
      They had eight children:

      1. Virgil D Lemster b 11 Dec 1900 d 7 May 1986 married 29 Dec 1921 Rebecca "Becky" Green
      2. Laura Zaza Lemaster b 26 Apr 1903 d 30 Aug 1904
      3. Roy Elmer Lemaster b 27 June 1908 d 9 Mar 1998 married (1) Alene Snedeger (2) Ruby Preston
      4. Oschel Roma Lemaster married Ruth Lyons

      7. John Lowell Lemaster b 16 Nov 1920 married 4 Oct 1945 Mabel Fyffe
      8. Vada Mayme Lemaster married Delbert Campbell.

      Keith - do you know the birth/death dates for Oschel Roma and Vada Mayme? In the picture Vada appears to be younger than Erma Blanch doesn't she?

      I received most of this information from John Lowell & Mabel Fyffe Lemaster during a visit to their home and numerious e-mails.
      Great picture of these folks - thanks for posting.
