In
November 2011, I purchased a scrapbook at an antiques mall in Carson,
California. The scrapbook is believed to have belonged to Laurine Wyatt. I am
transcribing the articles and documents contained in the scrapbook with the
hope that it may be of value to genealogists who may be researching the
individuals named.
The Wyatt scrapbook contains two
newspaper clippings featuring a young woman named Clyde Partlow.
“Above—Miss Clyde Parthow on "Many Mac," and, below, Miss
Elsie Caldwell, on "Me Too." Both girls appear in the Junior Horse
Show at the state pavilion this week.” [The picture of Elsie Caldwell was not
in the scrapbook.]
“MISS CLYDE PARTLOW, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Partlow, of
Franklin, Tenn., on "So Charming." Miss Partlow is a member of the Junior Riding club sponsoring the
Spring Horse show, May 8 and 9.—Photo by Bligh.”
Notes:
- On the 1930 U.S. federal
census, Clyde Partlow (age 15, born in Tennessee) is enumerated in
Williamson County, Tennessee, with her parents Joseph D. Partlow (age 51,
born in Tennessee, a farmer) and Elizabeth Partlow (age 47, born in
Tennessee). Also residing in the household was Lou Critlow (servant, age
60, born in Tennessee). [Source: 1930 U.S. census, Williamson County, Tennessee,

- The name of the
newspaper in which these photographs appeared and the dates of publication
are unknown.
- The relationship, if
any, of Laurine Wyatt to Clyde Partlow or her family is unknown.
