This picture and caption was printed in the Springs Valley Herald on
10/27/93. it is a copy of a picture my aunt, Anna Marie Richardson Borcia,
has. The picture was taken at a picnic of Prospect and friends. The picnic,
according to my dad, Francis Hayden Richardson, was probably held where the
Church of Christ in Prospect is now located. The land at that time was owned
by my great-grandfather, John Guy Richardson. who owned and ran a grocery in
Prospect and also lived in Prospect. He gave the land to the Church of
Christ. Most of the picture are kin of mine.
I will name the people who are known and would appreciate help with the ones
who are unknown.
