Handsome Couple: Gladys and Wilson Burton


Above are Gladys Pierce and Wilson Burton.

According to Debbie Kelly, their great niece, Wilson was a photographer at the Blue Light Studio in Mobile. He later became the photographer for Hammel’s Department Store and remained there for years. The Mobile Press Register published a feature article about him on June 22, 2008. You can also view some of his photos on the newspaper's website. His camera’s were donated to the University of South Alabama.

Gladys is not one of N.B. "Bonie" Pierce's children, but is obviously related to his family because this photo was in their collection.
