THS senior class in the late 20s




I don't think I have posted this picture before. This is the senior class of Tupelo High School in the late 1920s; will have to do some rsearch for the exact year. My father, Ezekiel Candler Kelly is on the end at the right of the top row. Notice how out numbered the boys were. Sam Lumkin who went on to become Lt. Governor of Mississippi is one of the boys, I think. Since a number of Plantersville residents attend THS, some of the girls may be from Plantersville.

One of the jewelery stores in Tupleo placed all the senior's on a clock and the name the little hand stopped on won a nice watch; my dad won and I still have the watch.
