Danny Bush is in the picture, but Danny DeCamp is not. It was, as I recall, the last year those 3 grades attended the old New Gretna School. The following year we went on to be the first students at Southern Regional.<br /><br />Robert BerghAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951483292186512206.post-64596881106681776992010-08-08T08:59:24.349-04:002010-08-08T08:59:24.349-04:00Jim,

I'm leaning toward this graduation photo being from 1958 as I was originally told by David Altscher.<br /><br />PetePete Stemmer, moderatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922972073356224964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951483292186512206.post-9502521116648524832010-08-07T13:50:22.547-04:002010-08-07T13:50:22.547-04:00Pete There seems to be too many students in the p...Pete There seems to be too many students in the photo for it to be just one class. Most classes were relatively small from what I can remember. Around 1958 the students in the 7th and 8th grade started attending Southern Regional. This photo may have been of the 6th, 7th and 8th grade. They all would have graduated from New Gretna that year.<br /><br /> Jim McAnneyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951483292186512206.post-83551647131642532992010-08-05T11:41:49.221-04:002010-08-05T11:41:49.221-04:00Well, it looks like we have some problems to solve...Well, it looks like we have some problems to solve related to the New Gretna Graduation photo, both as to date and exactly who is in the photo. This history business is never easy. Hopefully, New Greta-ites out in the Blog-O-Sphere will pitch in to solve the problems, so let's hear from you.<br /><br />Pete SPete Stemmer, moderatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922972073356224964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951483292186512206.post-53619683101583600072010-08-05T09:31:22.773-04:002010-08-05T09:31:22.773-04:00OK, The date of the picture (1956) came to me by w...OK, The date of the picture (1956) came to me by way of Patti Wilson Groff. <br />There are several corrections that need to be made (as provided by Robert Bergh).

Perhaps we can hear from David if he is lurking out in the Blog-O-Sphere or from Elaine who can tell us how she arrived at a 1956 date.<br /><br />Pete SPete Stemmer, moderatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922972073356224964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951483292186512206.post-2675337545721312252010-08-05T04:17:00.382-04:002010-08-05T04:17:00.382-04:00Pete,
