Description
Note: Original video file has been edited for clarity. As part of the "Proctor family research project," several Proctor women are interviewed, namely, Viola Proctor, Elizabeth Proctor Reynolds, and Annie Mae and John (Johnny) Proctor's daughter. Their ancestors, Antonio, George, and John Proctor, are known for their contributions to the state of Florida and to the city of Tallahassee. In these interviews, the Proctor descendants recall memories of their relatives, as well as their own childhoods, education, and other individual experiences. Some of the women were born and raised in Picolata, where Antonio Proctor was granted land by the Spanish government.
