Video of McCord Family About 1937 or '38


Once again, my thanks to Sue Mitchell for letting me copy this video.  Sue is a granddaughter of John & Hattie McCord, whose family appears in this film.  Their son-in-law George Andre shot it in 1937 or '38, I think.

This is the earliest film of The Hill neighborhood I know of.  The McCords lived on 2nd Street.  Check out the houses and the car that goes down Main Street.  It raises a lot of dust.  (Oops - the hotrodders appear in the  previous clip.)

(I noticed the typo in the video -- I'm too lazy to correct it right now!)
