I found these pictures of the Bradfords. I am not sure when or where they were taken but I am guessing they were taken in Key West, Fl based on the backgrounds. I can recognize Papa Jack, Grandma Bradford, Aunt Lucy Mae, Uncle Robert and Dad in the photos but I do not know the other people. If you know who they are, let me know and I will make the corrections.
Grandma Beene’s Birthday party at Aunt Vera Mae and Uncle Raymond’s house in Irving, TX. I do not know the year.
Grandma Beene at Mission San Jose in San Antonio. The date on the back is blurred but the print was developed and printed in September and I believe the year is 197?.
Grandpa Beene standing in front. I don’t know the other men.
Grandma Beene and Aunt Lela.
Grandma and Grandpa Beene.

Uncle Buddy, Aunt Peggy, Grandpa Beene (holding Margaret), Grandma Beene (holding me (Bill)) and Nancy. I am assuming that this picture was taken at Mt. Calm only because similar pictures were taken there. It might have been taken at another place. If anyone knows for sure, let me know.

Aunt Irene, Uncle Oscar, Uncle Dick, Aunt Novell, Uncle Jack, Aunt Francis, Uncle Al (holding Leona) Aunt Jimmie, Grandma Beene, Grandpa Beene (holding Margaret), Aunt Chubby, Mom, Dad, Uncle Buddy, Aunt Peggy and JoAnn. Taken at Mt. Calm
I really don’t know who all these people are in this picture. Based on other pictures, it looks like the house at Mt. Calm. That looks like Grandma Beene sitting on the right and that could be Grandpa Beene standing behind her. That looks like Uncle Dick with the hat on but these are only guesses. Maybe someone can help me out with the real names.

I believe this is a photo of the Bradford family. I think that is Papa Jack on the left and I believe that is Lucy Mae next to him. I am fairly sure that is Grandma Bradford, Robert and Dad.

Mom, Aunt Maggie and Grandma Bradford at the Gardens.
Dad and Uncle Robert and then since someone didn’t wind the film all the way using one of the old cameras, we have another picture of Uncle Robert on the bottom.
Margaret and I found this in one of Mom’s old photo albums. Neither of us recall hearing of the Bradford’s BanDan Inn.
I had posted this picture before but we weren’t sure who was in the photo. Since then, Margaret found some more photo albums and this was in them.
On the back of this photo: Mr. and Mrs. E.M. White. Mr. White 87 yrs. Mrs. White 84 yrs. Taken June 28, 46.
This was the first time that Margaret and I had seen what our Great Grandfather looked like. Both of us can remember going to see Great Grandmother White several times when we were growing up.
This a photo that Margaret found yesterday in some of Mom’s things. It certainly looks like Grandma Bradford but we have no idea who the Gentleman is or where or when the photo was taken. Does anyone know anything about this picture?
Back row: Elaine, Francis, Grandpa Beene, Grandma Beene, Jimmie. Middle row: Irene, Sonny, Chubby, Novell. Front row: Vera Mae, Buddy, Peggy.
Aunt Maude, Uncle Tom, Grandpa Beene and Grandma Beene.
I have no idea where or when either of these pictures were taken.
This is a picture that Margaret found today in some of Mom’s stuff. This is what was written on the back of the photo so I hope it is correct. It seems strange looking at this photo, relatives that I don’t recall ever seeing except for Grandma Beene. Thankfully with today’s modern medicine, children are able to know their Great Grandparents and Great Aunts and Uncles.
Looking back I also find it odd that I don’t remember any of Grandma or Grandpa’s Brothers and Sisters. I am sure that my Aunts and Uncles remember them but I wonder how many of my cousins remember them. It seems strange to me because the Beene family was always getting together especially at Christmas, so why weren’t they there at least some of the time? Just my thought or maybe just my bad memory.
