Unknown Man On Horse

Here is a photograph I received, but I have no idea who is in the picture. If you now who the man on the horse, or the man in the background, is leave a comment below or use the contact form to let me know.

Update  Judy says she was told that this is Otis Slone

  1. I am not sure of what era this is but my dad Beverage Moore always talked about how his mother Annie's dad John L Slone always rode a white horse.

  2. John L was my great grandfather so I am sure that we are cousins somewhere along the line

  6. John L Slone is my grat uncle. My father had his pcoket knife.
    It was handed down to me. It's a hawk bill with J L carved in the handle.

  7. John L is my great-grandfather. One of the few things I have from my dad is also a pocket knife. Actually, my step-grandfather gave it to me just a couple years ago. It is nice to have a personal thing like that, I mean something that the person actually liked and used. I also have the funeral "guest" book for Otis Slone (John L was his father). Otis died before I was born, I wish I had gotten the chance to know him and John L.

  8. It was always my understanding from dad that John L was shot while on his white horse.

    Sometimes don't you just wish they would have at least tried to write the names on the photos. It can be so dishearting, sometimes.
