Colby (Kansas) Consolidated Grade School- 1943


Picture of the 6th grade class in 1943




Most of the individuals in the photo have been identified. The information from Maxine (Linville) Brooks (a sister of Harold Linville)([email protected])(October 2000). She wrote that Harold and Dixie Upchurch came up with the following names. Now that I see them the memory comes back. Thanks a lot!!!

Back row: (left to right) Harold Linville, Ben McFarland, Betty Plantz, Dixie Upchurch, Betty Lyons? (deceased), Stewart Zimmerman, Cleveland Spencer, Jim Smith

Middle row: (left to right) Phyllis Riedel, Joyce Kroth (deceased), Donna Withers, Marie Patterson (deceased), Shirley Schumaker, Mary Jane Spielman, Betty Wheaton

Front row: (left to right) Dean Young (deceased), Ray Parsons, Robert Saunders (deceased), Cloyd Metzler, Dewayne Vohs, Jordon Williams, Bill Yeager.

Ray Beery reminded me that there were two 6th grade classes in Colby and he was in the other class with Russell Brown, Marion Coleman and Nancy Dennen among others. If anyone has a photo of "the other" class send a copy attached to an e-mail and I will post it here also.
