It shows people seated around tables eating, wearing their Sunday best. From the clothing, it appears to have been taken in the 40’s or so. If you will notice, there are pews pulled up to the tables for seating! One gentleman seemed to have been caught just as he was about to take a bite! No one in the picture is identified.

    The child in the front on the right looking at the camera is my father, Richard Z. Johnson, Sr…..direct descendant of Richard Barrington.

      If you can identify any of the others in the photo, that would help tremendously!
