This picture was taken in Albia in the 1930s. I do not know the occasion. My father, Richard Ferris, is in the row of boys standing behind the seated girls, sixth from the left (short one). My grandmother, Kate Ferris, is in the row of ladies behind the boys, ninth from the left (in front of the lady in the white hat).

I would like to know what this group of people represent, maybe a church?

Here is a picture of my GG Aunt Sarah (Bennett) and her husband Grayson Benjamin Horne (seated).
Would like to know who the others are in the photo.
I know they are sons and wives of Sarah and Grayson.
Maybe someone out there can fill in the gaps better.
