Genealogy and History

Rosalba School

This picture was submitted by Dorothy L. Scott of Manchester, Michigan.  Her roots are Pontotoc Mississippi, she has lived there and still "comes home".   She wants to know more about ths picture and perhaps obtain a better copy of it as a gift for her elderly aunt and needs it by the end of April, 2008.   The writing is not clear. Here is what Ms. Scott knows about the picture: 

1. Rosalba School Picture - I think the words are "Rosalba", not sure

2. Pictures taken by C.H. Ellis

3. Year - I think it says 1930 or somewhere in the thirties

4. All Black students

5. 4 rows

6. All students standing in front of a little wooden school with school bell located on the right.

 If you find the picture, it may have all the names on it but I have all the names of the students. A lot of them are my kin. Thank you so much for taking the time, it is most appreciated.
