Young Royalty



Once, Baldwyn had beauty and personality contests for the youngsters.

From the middle 40s, the above photo from Sue Downs Houston shows her and Tom Shellnut as "Little Mister" and "Little Miss Baldwyn".

Sue writes:

"We were 5 years old, and that year Tootsie McCary Morris was Miss Baldwyn. Tommy said that David Gentry was first runner up. I can't remember who the girl was."

Can anyone help with that?

Thanks, Sue. Ya'll were a very cute couple!

  8. As I think back, we sure had a good time growing up, we may have grown in the funnest time in history-- no one wanted to take a gun to school and shoot everybody--we had a lot of freedom to do what we liked and I dont see anyone of us who turned out bad-----------
