Groundbreaking

No date on this clipping, I"m thinking its early 70's. I'm wondering why and when they decide to change the name of Derby Road to Diary Road, which is the name I have always know it to be.  A great photo non the less.

Pearson Portrait

A Pearson Portrait dated on the back November 4, 1943.  Never got to meet my grandfather but I
heard he was always smiling and joking around. Who ever took this photo must have said something
really funny. I would love to know what.  You can tell my grandmother is about to start cracking
up also.  They must have been going to some party or some event.  That generation sure did know
how to dress.

Trips to Daytona Beach and New Orleans

Some pictures of vacations to Daytona Beach, Florida 1940 and New Orleans 1941.

Welcome

Roots stretching from Kentucky all the way to Florida welcome to House of Pearson.  You will see a
lot of photos and some stories about the House of Pearson. I will try to mix the current and the pass.
October is a special month for me.  My father Richard Alan Pearson was born October 14, 1943
to Guy Pearson(top left) & Zella J. Pearson(top right) of Anchorage, Kentucky. His bother was
Perry C Pearson(bottom).  The story begins with images and dates from my father's baby book. This is
the 1st entry in that album.
