History Mystery: Who ARE these people?

Posted on March 1, 2016 by in ALHistory, Discover Your Past, DiscoverYou

You can help the Alabama Department of Archives and History and Prime magazine identify unknown people in photos from three Montgomery-area photographers who worked in the 1950s, 60s and 70s. Our successful first year in 2015 prompted us to renew the History Mystery series this year. Your assistance is critical in determining who these mystery people are. If you know anyone in these photos contact Meredith McDonough at 334-353-5442, or meredith.mcdonough@archives.alabama.gov, or e-mail Prime magazine at primemontgomery@gmail.com.
