The only person I can identify is my grandfather, B. Floyd Smith. He is in the center of the front row in the dark hat. He was born in Macedonia, IL (Franklin County) in 1892 and his family moved to Mt Vernon when his father took a job with the 'car shops'.

Floyd appears to be in his twenties so I would date this picture 1912-1915. He married in 1915 and lived in Benton (Franklin County), IL after that date. He later was the Principal of Benton Township High School.
