Trixie and the Texas autograph book......

Keeping up with the Jones' in 1900 
Drawing of Trixie
Back of the drawing: It says:
Trixie Jones- Amarillo, Texas
Mrs. Geo. Gideon, Box 64, telephone 15, Avant, OK
1959- Mildred Gideon-Bowman asked me for this picture.
I gladly give it to one who wants it. Later it can be for Mary Frances.


Trixie's autograph book.  It's 114 years young.  The cover still looks great but the pages inside are brittle and fading.

The first four Jones kids! Shelley-10 (top), Lucile-2 (center), Trixie -7 and Stanley-4
Aren't they cute!

Back of the photo

11 years old in McGregor, Texas.  

Remember Booker from the OU Diary?  Of course you do!

Signed Mrs. Sue Annofill- my scanner cut it off
Lucile and friends. Lucile is the last little girl.


So sweet.  Little sis Lucile.  Notice how her name was spelled.  Since she was only five, I bet someone wrote it for her.
I love the sticker on the page.

Lucile and Trix- 1903

Stanley!  Exactly something a brother would write!
