Reverend William "Bill" Green at age 87: He was first brought to Texas under the enslavement of John Montgomery. Bill was a black cowboy, breaking horses on his owners' ranch by age 12 and emancipated on Juneteenth. The girl in the photo may still be alive today. (Original photos taken in July 1937)
