Title: Can You Name These Members Of The BFA Faculty??
Post by: Henry on May 17, 2008, 08:17:16 AM

Looking at Maryann's Old 1958 Bellows Buzzer, I ran across this photo of The Faculty - I never went to BFA, however, was surprised that I could only name for or five of them:

Cyrus Leach, who lived on the corner of Huntville & Main, then Coach Wilbur (Can't remember his real first name) McAllister who lived near Mrs. Soule's house and I actually believe built that house, are the first two, Laura Hubbert, Evelyn Irish, Ruth Ellsworth, Louise McArdle, ? and John Barker.  Connie Manahan, Iva Williams, Pearl Welch, Dorthy King, Georgianna Stewart and Fannie Carpenter.

The one I have left with a ? might be a guy by the name of Macy? Koskin?

I think I can name a few more of the teachers in this photo.   I believe the ladies in the back row from the left to the right are Laura Hubbert (vocal music), Evelyn Irish (grade 8), Ruth Ellsworth (grade 5), and Louise McArdle (grade 2).  In the front row I do not know the first lady, but I believe the second might be Mrs. Williams, the third looks like Pearl Welch, and the last looks like Fannie Carpenter.

Thanks Leona.  Sally Sweet called and gave me a bunch of them and Maryann went up and checked it out when she got on the computer.  Looks like just one name in doubt as of now.

The name you are missing is John (Jack)  Macy. He was a teacher and also owned a company in St. Albans that sold boats on route 7 just south of St. Albans Drive In.
