I AM RUTH CONLEY OWEN AND I SAW THE WHOLE FAMILY IN THE PICTURE,THAT
WAS NICE.
I am completely crushed, nobody mentioned what a fine fellow I was at 16.
I'm in the upper right hand corner wearing a white shirt and two rows down and over to the left between the cowboy Don McClendon the the clown Victor Gaona is my mother Babe.
In the lower left the men in uniform are Dutch Narfsky, Harry Rooks, Fred Logan and Whitey Thorn.
Front row center are Dale Miller, Karen Kay Miller, Lydia Miller, Obert Miller, Barbara Jane Miller, Isla Miller, D.R. Miller and Kelly Miller.
I only saw the Johnny Cline elephants once. All pictures are welcome.
Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to pick out anyone of my family.

Dear Brandy,
Your father is the young man at the extreme left without a cap, the two people next to him are Frieda and Fred.
Just to the right of the four men in uniform is Jim Conley and the two kids in front of him are Carl and Anita.
Brandy,
The man holding the child next to Fred Conley is Clair Ratley and the kid with the cowboy hat next to him is Eddie Murillo later of Monte Carlo fame.
My dad died when I was 5 but I would guess third row on the left end. TeLa Schmidt Hereau
You did a good job picking out the family. The only 2 you missed was Ruth Conley Owen, she is standing between the uniformed man and Jim Conley and also my grandmother Virginia she is on the left side of Jim. Both ladies have large white bows in their hair. And the baby that Claire is holding is Sandy Ratley.
Do you have any pictures of the Riding Conleys? In addition to Kelly Miller in 51 (where this picture was taken), they were on Dailey Bros in 1945. Other than that I don't know when and where they were. In later years the Conley's were on Von Bros (where my parents met) and they were with Hunt Bros.
Thanks so much for including them.
