My grandmother wrote on the back of this photo: From
Left to Right in buggy are Ray, Grandpa Mason, Elizabeth Ann Caywood.
Then next is John Reuben (son of Mason).
Then Joe and Susan Shepherd – then Frances (was a Shepherd) &
William Caywood. This was the land
the Caywoods bought in Central Kansas – bought it from the Santa Fe R.R. for
50¢ per acre. It had never been
farmed. The trees were all planted
by the Caywoods. A few Indians were
still around when the Caywoods first settled in Kansas.
