This is my father's parents, Robert Melton Powell and Gerturde Lee Maples. The photo was taken not long after they were married, perhaps on the day they were married. I believe the house is the first house they lived in after marriage.
For family members with an interest in our history, I have a Powell family research website here:

Here I have placed a link to some family photos and to some family letters written in 1925. Enjoy, Fleta

got the letters down loaded
I did not know you had the letters scanned.
Boy don't you know that was hard to heat.
Somehow, I think I remember they shared this house with another couple, but maybe I misremember. I know when Mom and Dad married they shared with Truman and Francis. Sometimes I remember things that did not happen. I still have the wonderful memories, true or false.
Me too, but I do not remember anything about this house.
I have scanned in one letter.
Hope to do more and load them
to the erin site.
I loved seeing the old house and the old-fashioned clothing. Thanks for the little trip into the past.
