A SELF FAMILY PICTURE


This picture was given to me by the late Berlin Self. Left to right is Sara Self, holding her son, William (Bill) Self. Bill was born August 12, 1935, so this helps us to date this picture. Next to Sara is her husband, Onie Self and his mother, Lillie Self, wife of J.R. Sherman Self. Dessie Self is next and then Burt Self is on the end. Dessie and Burt are two more children of Lillie Self.
