Church Record Sunday - Ballinger, Texas Church Directory

Church directories can provide the names of church members, their addresses, phone numbers, and in more recent times, photographs.

I do not know the year this directory was printed, but it was about 1945 and my father, Richard Robbins, was the minister.  He may have printed the directory as well.

All of the telephone numbers were only 3 or 4 digits long, and many members did not have a number listed.  I have combined two entries as Mr. & Mrs. when it is obvious they are husband and wife; otherwise I have typed the names in the order they appear.

When I saw my mother was on the committee to care for the yard, I remembered at one time she had only one pants suit.  That was probably in the late 50s. It was brown cotton, tailored, and semi-casual by today's standards.  When I asked her why she never wore pants, I told me that in some place they had lived she was criticized for wearing pants in the front yard while doing yard work.  I wonder if Ballinger was that place.  At least a decade later, she had several pant suits, but I don't think she ever wore them to church.  My how times have changed!
