POSSIBLE IDENTIFICATION Left to Right: ? ? Walter J. Carr, Sinnie Sinclair, Russell B. North We were looking at Russell North's entry on your site. You were looking for identification of the Early Birds in the second picture. Doc believes that the man to Russell North's right is Sinnie Sinclair, and the one next to him is possibly Walt Carr. Maybe you will get verification from others as well. Bill Ballard LORI BRUBAKER, 10-26-06 Editor's Note: I appreciate the efforts of Bill and Lori to help with the identification of these men.
