Here are larger versions of the photos:

Family History Miscellaneous album

 

1. Mildred Hicks, Cleffie Burford, Evalee Jones 1940 (expecting Junior, Bob, and Buck)

2. Family picnic. Not sure of exactly who they all are. I think the girl on the far left is Wathada. The woman kneeling on the ground on the right is Annie, and the tall man in the hat is Ulys. Among the children are for sure Ronnie and Beverly, Buck and Bob -- not quite sure of the others. Pretty sure Vernell is sitting on the ground, and that might be Ray sitting near her, so two of the children in front of them might be Carl Ray and Velda. So... of the women standing, one must surely be Cleffie, and one Evalee (because their children are in the picture). The man bent over at the far right might be Charles Jones...? That doesn't account for everyone in the photo, but it's as close as I can come.

3. Annie Hicks, center, and her six daughters. L-R: Bernice, Vernell, Evalee, Cleffie, Irene, Ruby.

4. Charles and Evalee, Beverly and Buck, with Ulys and Annie, 1948.

5. Some of Ulys and Annie's grandchildren. (Let's see if I can remember what it took a team effort to figure out...) Back L-R: Velma Lee, June, Wathada holding Russell, Oma Dell, Morris, Buck, Betty Ruth. Front L-R: Carl Ray, Clint, Ron, Shelby, Mary Gail, Bob, Velda, Bobbie Rene, Beverly, Chuck, Jeannie. This would have been 1951.

6. L-R: Vernell, Cleffie, Olan, Ulys, Lowell, Annie, Irene, Ruby, Bernice, Evalee. (This is all the siblings except Elvin.)

7. Christmas 1950: Jack, Charles, Lester, Ray, Jay, Olan, Lowell.

8. Ronnie, Annie, Beverly. Hidden in the bushes behind them - Buck, Wathada, Bob.

9. Ruby (left) and Evalee (right). Evalee is holding Wathada. I'm not sure who the baby is that Ruby is holding, but I think it might be Velma Lee because she is the same age as Wathada. The other children, left to right, are Oma Dell, Vernell, Olan, Lowell, and Bernice. This would have been around 1936. 

Here are the individual photos:

Family History Miscellaneous album

 

This album - Family History Miscellaneous - actually no longer exists in hard copy. This page is from the original scan I did of the album before I re-organized the albums. I'm going to go ahead and post it, though, because it will provide a little more variety among the various branches of the family tree.

Key:

1. Cleffie Hicks and cousin Sylvia Arnold

2. Clint, Jeannie, and Chuck Hicks, children of Olan and Barbara Hicks

3. Destruction from the tornado in Judsonia, Arkansas, in 1952

4. Lena Carter, daughter of George Thomas Carter

5. Annie Arnold Hicks with cow

6. Destruction from Judsonia tornado

7. Annie Arnold Hicks

8. Katie and Kevin Siggins, grandchildren of Della and Otho Simeon Ford (on the Thomas branch of the family tree)

9. Morris and Becky Burford

Here are the photos in their original size

The last two pictures might have been taken at the Hicks family reunion in 1988, but I'm not sure.

This is the last of the reunion pictures. Tomorrow I'll start another one of my albums, but I haven't decided which one yet. 

More

 I think these might be from the 1988 Hicks family reunion. Not sure.

L-R: Lowell, Bernice, Olan, Vernell, Evalee, Cleffie, Irene, Ruby

These are all of Ulys & Annie's children except Elvin (who died in 1974)

Lined up in order of birth (right to left -- Ruby's the firstborn)

Same group, with spouses: Lowell & Elaine, Bernice & Bill, Olan & Barbara, Vernell & Ray, Evalee & Charles, Cleffie, Irene, Ruby & Jack

Not sure if this was a reunion, or maybe a church gathering. Vernell in the red sweater, Bernice in red vest with white collar, Bill (Bernice's husband) in white jacket.

These appear to be pictures from some sort of reunion, but I honestly don't know when or where.
