Photo Album - Dot and T.E. Stephens.

Dorothy and Thomas Earl Stephens live in the Rico Community in Chattahoochee Hills, GA. They met at a Cake Walk (a community social where cakes were awarded as prizes) in 1941 in the building that is now Chattahoochee Hills City Hall. They married in 1942 and raised four children – Elaine, Tommy, Nina, and Nancy. In this album, we've captured photos of Dot and T.E. and their homeplace in Rico, as well as some photos of the couple and their family over the years.
