Mary Hartley <mhartley@theremc.com> sent the following photo, with the note: "I have this photo of the Arledge family....it looks like it might have been taken on the same day as the one already in your photo file. Anyway, the man sitting in the chair is James Nelson Arledge with his great grandson, John Howard Neff, Jr. on his lap. John Howard is the son of Alma (nee Hartley) Neff standing at the left with her daughter, Alice Marie Neffin her arms. The man in the middle, standing is Harley Mahlon Arledge, my husband's grandfather and Alma's, too. The lady on the right, is my husband and Alma's mother, Gladys Bernice (nee Arledge) Hartley. She is also the daughter of Harley, and granddaughter of James. "
