The above photo, appearing on page 12 of the Aug. 28, 1952, Lowell Tribune, had the following caption:.
The Old Worley Homestead
The children are Rev. Edmond L. Worley of Lowell, pastor of the Shelby Church of Christ, and Rev. Edson Worley, pastor of the Sheldon, Ill., Church of Christ. The little boys are pictured with their parents, Nathan and Malissa Stone Worley. A third son, Lewis (died 1950), is in the cart. Mr. Worley served in the Civil War.
The old homestead, located 4 1/2 miles south of Lowell, near the home of Nathan's father, John L. (on the Joe Martin road), has been rebuilt and is occupied by the Edward Hoffmann family.
