I do not know the name of the
baseball team, but it is ca1915 and was taken in the Newsome Sinks,
Cotaco County, AL area (actually in a field near present home of Roger
Irvin between West Point and Union Hill, Morgan County, AL). I have
listed folks on the photograph. They are: Back Row L to R: Coach Bill
Culbreath, Overby Jefferson "Boss" Goodson, Richard "Emmit" Owen
(Stetson derby), Fred Howard, Phillip Markham, Gilbert Criscoe and Tom
Criscoe. Front Row L to R: Robert "Bob" Criscoe, Jake Goodson, Fred
Culbreath, Herbert Criscoe and James "Worth" Thomas. (Note: Richard
Emmit Owen (my great grandfather) is son of Richard J. Owens and Mary
GRANTLAND Owens. Boss and Jake Goodson (my great uncles) are the sons of
Jefferson Pierce Goodson and Martha Ann WHITTLE Goodson. Worth Thomas
(my great uncle) is the son of James Jefferson Thomas and Susan Matilda
