Marion Evening Post Staff 1920’s

This staff photo was found at the Wiliamson County Historical Society. No date was on the photo but appears to date by concensus to the 1920’s when the paper was active.

Samuel Casey was the editor/publisher of this paper which he formed with James Felts in 1902. Both had earlier holdings in the Egyptian Press as well.

Samuel surrendered his interest in the Egyptian Press in 1907 when he suffered an illness, but continued to edit and publish the Marion Evening Post. Casey died in 1939.

Shown left to right are: Samuel K. Casey, Billie Wilson, E.R. Jones, Leo Lackey, Leon Felts, Laura Belle Skaggs, Elizabeth Hartwell, Minto Bradley, S. Perryman and Howard Oliver. If you have knowledge of any individuals in the photo let us know
