"Rockdale, my hometown, is Texas' heart and significant part of its soul," George Sessions Perry wrote in his book, Texas: A World Unto Itself. Perry wrote with lifelong affection about his hometown, first as a novelist and later as a magazine journalist. He describes the pioneers of Rockdale as typical of restless Southerners who hitched their wagons and moved to Texas after the Civil War. . . . Clay Coppedge . . .

1913 :: John Scott's Notice
This is to notify all people who have had photographs taken by me from the beginning of Rockdale until the present time, that with few exceptions, my negatives will be at my daughter's, Mrs. Valdie Lewis, about four miles southeast of Rockdale. All who want them can get same at following prices: Negatives up to and including cabinet size, 50 cents each, and all larger than cabinet, $1.00 each. Look on the back of photo and get the number and you can get them at above prices. She will have my register with names of parties and the number of negative. So I bid you all a kindly farewell. John Scott. Rockdale Reporter and Messenger, April 24, 1913
