Holdaway, Barbara, et. al.910 viewsHere is a picture from an old Polaroid. Anne Holdaway Eitel is the woman to the far right in the back row. Her daughter Barbara Eitel is the girl located in the middle front row. The others are possible Perkins relatives at Grayson county VA. The lady pictured at the front right appears in many pictures I have. I am guessing she is Winnie Perkins mother. Hoping for help in identification. Cathy Bell cjbell47@goldenwest.net
