Odds and Ends
Elliot-Manning house 5 th Ave
The Elliott-Manning house is now gone and this lot is empty. The lot is southwest of the hospital (diagonal from hospital block on the south side of 5th Ave). Manning’s Landing on Lake Jackson is 365 yds behind this house. The camellia bush in this picture on the left of the steps still stands and lives on the empty lot.

Booth house. South 5th St. The Hughes mansion is in the background
Early Florala City School (date unknown). Help us identify where this school was located. One guess is that it was the school located at the current Greenwood cemetery. A school was located there on the AL-FL state line so that it could be used and supported by both AL and FL.
The pictures above show a poster of Florala business advertisements. The date is unknown, but may be around 1911. We are unsure how these posters were used but they were possibly posted around town on special occasions such as the June 24th Masonic celebrations. Click to enlarge to read.
