"The picture at the top is Wallace White's cabin, which is still standing in Cave Springs, Missouri. At the bottom is Wallace White and his wife Daisy White outside of their canebreak in Caves Springs, Missouri."
"The writing on the back says that the photo is from 1932, however, we believe it must be older. We don't know what that picture comes from, but we know that when he went into the Missouri State Calvary he was 15 years old and so that would mean...there's a picture of him that looks like he was the same type [age] from an old soldiers reunion in 1908 and so I would say that photo is from around 1908."

"That is an unknown fellow, one of the relatives of Miss Olivia Murray. We think it's, perhaps, her nephew. We don't know anything else about it...This was given to me by a lady named Ms. Ruby Fletcher who was a white lady who lived in this town, and she was the executor of Miss Olivia Murray's estate."
