How can I find a Memorial Day Parade filmed in 1969?

Question

I was not a member of Tidewater Western Riders but was invited to ride in the 1969 Memorial Day Parade with them. I am trying to find pictures for our daughter. I tried Google but seem to go in circles and TWR is no longer in existence. I know it was filmed because I attended a showing of it later that year.

Answer 1

This is the only picture I was able to find involving the Tidewater Western Riders, but it is not the one you are looking for.

You're very welcome, Ladyhorse.

Answer 3

Dear Ladyhorse,

I don't think I have any more ideas than the ones you have already tried...1969, but perhaps you can still get lucky because more people are saving old mementos now, maybe!

Answer 4

Perhaps if this address is still correct? You could write to any surviving member and maybe someone has the archives for the organisation. Maybe. Otherwise, I couldn't find but bits and pieces.
