Worming and topping tobacco. W.L. Fugate rents farm. Willie, 12 years old and Ora, 10 years old will go to Schoolsville School, Clark Co., Ky., but it has not opened yet. Location: Hedges Station, Kentucky / Lewis W. Hine, 1916.

There are 10 photos of this family on the Library of Congress website. I've talked to one of William Fugate's daughters, and Ora's daughter. Ora's name was actually Orie. He passed away in 1959, and William died in 1977.
