I know that not many photos exist of social events of early Spur, but I hope that some of you might have old party or church event social gathering stored somewhere--or even posed pictures of young women and men from the years 1912-1920. I'm trying to create a book that captures the idea of life in early Spur and especially (at this point) the courtship and social entertainments of young people. Picnics, Kodaking trips, and revivals...anywhere young people gathered to meet and court. I've found references in The Texas Spur about members of the following clubs and their activities:

Batchelor Girls
Merry Wives
Bob Whites
Old Maid's (or Old Maid's Thimble)Club

If you have anything more on these groups--Photos or stories--please let me know!

Thanks,
Marcia
