Looking for old pre-1950s photos of early Groveton farms, old homes, businesses and information on the founding families from the 1800s and early 1900s. My sister is gathering historic images of Groveton and the stories that go with them to include in a book she is writing for Arcadia Publishing called Images of Groveton. She has the photos and the historical background posted on the Groveton website (http://www.grovetonva.org/history.php) and the St. Mark’s Episcopal Church website (http://www.stmarksalex.org/About_St_Mar ... St_Mark_s/)
Please look in your parents/grandparents’ old photos and keepsakes for any printed item or photos of Groveton. If you are willing to share, leave her a message on her FB @Charlotte Brown or reply to this post. She will make arrangements to scan the items and return them to you. She will be very careful and will not damage them. She could also talk to your parents/grandparents who remember things from the 1940s or earlier to gather additional information.
