Description

Center Township High School, Class of 1918, in Rogersville, Center Township, Greene County, Pennsylvania. [Left-Right]: BACK - Lawrence William Morris, Texa Leah Kughn, Charles Caleb Ely*, David W. Fox, Harold R. Morris, Bess Mae (Webster) Rhodes, Jesse Harold Thompson; MIDDLE - Harry Sherwin Iams*, Claire (Mitchell) Parry, Garnet (Watson) Bristor, Zelma Scott, Georgia Nelle (Garner) Paul, Mary Olive Fletcher, Ralph H. Scott; FRONT - Belle Katherine Stewart, Floyd West, Georgia Isabelle Cole, John Francis Huffman, Nellie Mae (Webster) Black, Charles Mitchell Sanders, Faye Opal (Stahl) Jackson. *Handwritten caption on reverse of image identifies this graduate as John Iams, however this identification seems to be an error because "John Iams" appears twice in the handwritten captions and yet "John Iams" is not a name on the graduation program (see item # TOOG-AN002-0028). Two male students named in the graduation program are missing from the image caption: Harry Sherwin Iams and Charles Caleb Ely. Charles Caleb Ely was identified based on item # CAND-AN007-0052. Harry Sherwin Iams was identified by process of elimination. Original, professional photograph from Babbitt, Waynesburg, Pa.
