What: This is the group picture taken in front of the church in Gaynor/Parnell. I made a trip to the area and the church as of that time was still being used. The house across the street from the church was the home of John Munn and Mary Jane Montgomery. In front of the house was a store that I have been told by family members was operated by John Munn. The picture was taken in 1915 on their 60th wedding anniversary. I have a list that I will send later of who most of the people are. The man on the right with a hat in his hand and the older woman I do not know who they are. On the left side there is an older man smiling, again no idea. Mary Jane died in the home in 1924.
