We know this picture was taken in the old gym in La Joya.  At one time there was a school there.  It's believed the picture was taken sometime in the 1960s.


We know that on the bottom row, the teach Emilio Peralta is seated on the far left.


Can anyone help us identify any of these beautiful, youthful faces?

Help us solve some mysteries!

We know the gentleman on the far right (behind the counter) is Vicente Chavez y Torres, who was the owner of the general store in La Joya.  The mystery is:


Who is the child on the far left and the fellow in the middle?

Our present mystery is identifying the people in the two pictures below.  Can you help us identify anybody?  Is this you?  Someone you recognize?  Let us know if you can help ID a face!
