Howard Sherman Dye (born 1867) is older man in back on left. Lester (born 1899) is back far right. Eldon Dye (born 1915) is next to Lester. Two younger boys are Lewis Dye (born May 1919) and Lester's son Bill Dye (born May 1920). I think Bill is the one on the left, and the 3 brothers are standing together. | |
