Trail Family Page

This is the Nonnie that I knew.
No matter what age her age,
this is the way she looked to me.

Back of photo says
Bazil Trail
about 20 years old
With the name spelt with a Z
it would make him the son of
William Martin Trail
But over the years there has developed a
problem with the spelling of Basil - Bazil.
So it is difficult to be sure which
Basil - Bazil is which.

Bazil is the one in the middle
Don't know who the other boys are.
