My mother, Norma Evelyn Poston, was born in Camp Creek, graduated from Spearsville School in 1935. My uncle, Leonard Poston, sold produce under the oak trees at Mt. Union Baptist Church & passed out little Bibles for many, many years.
My mother is on the top row, 2nd from left. She married my father, William Pinkney McKinnie. 3rd from left on the top row is Ethel Cook, wife of Guy Upshaw. They lived in Marion. She was Mom’s best friend all their life.

Thank you for sharing this! My aunt Margie (Nutt) Harris is the 2nd from right in the front row. She was my Daddy’s sister. My Daddy, (Madison) Leroy Nutt, graduated from Spearsville in 1936. He will be 96 on August 27. I would love to see any other pictures of Spearsville classes, maybe 1936, 1937. He had other brothers and sisters also who attended. Daddy and Mother really enjoy these pictures and
posts.
