Photographs are a neat thing – they take us to places we’ll never have the chance to touch or taste or smell, but we can SEE. Here’s a bit of Tennessee in 1935, a time of heartache and hardship and so much life. As we kiss 2015 goodbye, let’s look over our shoulders a bit and give age-old Tennessee a nod.
- A moment in 1935 Murfreesboro
Programmar If you’ve visited Murfreesboro lately, you’ll know that it doesn’t quite look like this anymore.
- A woman weaving in Crossville
Programmar Hardworking southern women built a society - bore a society, and raised it - all while working and providing for their families.
- An old saw mill out in the boonies
Programmar Alright, alright - it’s in Crossville. But that’s kind of the same thing, right?
- Mrs. Roosevelt giving her all to a group of men working on the Cumberland Homestead
Programmar Whoa. So neat to see political moments like this.
- The little sawmill that could
Programmar We have a little peephole into the world that once was.
- Rock quarry that was used in the construction of the Cumberland Homesteads
Programmar It was hard, backbreaking work.
- A Nashville religious meeting
Programmar We don’t think this group is just out for coffee…
- One of the old, one of the few Mississippi riverboats
Programmar The structure is stunning.
- Would you stop and listen to these men and women on the streets of Nashville?
Programmar Maybe…Maybe not.
- The JB Smith on the Mississippi
Programmar A bit of history, right here for you.
- The Maynardville Courthouse
Programmar Isn’t this a stunning piece of architecture?
- Little ol’ Maynardville, Tennessee
Programmar Then you have the general store. The city hub, a sweet spot for Maynard citizens.
