Coming 10 years too late to this site compared to the other comments.

I was hoping for any additional info on Jimmy Spowart. I have been looking for my father (Marshall) Spowart’s brother for many years without luck. They lived in Blythe and their Dad was a coal miner. Any help would be appreciated… the timing of this pic and the age of the children seems to fit. Thank you
