This 1939 home movie captures Mildred Yount Manion, daughter of Beaumont oil man Miles Frank Yount, with her two-month-old daughter, Kathryn. Kathryn’s father, Edward, a nanny, and a family friend also take turns holding the baby. The Yount-Manion Films were given to Lamar University by Greg Riley and Fred McKinley. The pair discovered the films while researching their 2005 book, Black Gold to Bluegrass: From the Oil Fields of Texas to Spindletop Farm of Kentucky, which chronicles the legacy of Frank and Pansy Yount.
