I picked this up on e bay two years ago. Rex is the younger gentleman on the right.

Although Rex Ingram was not his birth name, he did have some Ingram ancestry. His birth name was Reginald Ingram Montgomery Hitchcock.

Charles Ingram & Dixie Ingram

This is from Stone Mountain several years ago. Charles Ingram from Birmingham, AL is on the left and Dixie Ingram of the Scottish Power Pipe Band in on the right.

I've lost track of Charles. His mailing address and e mail address do not work anymore. If anyone knows him or what's become of hm please contact me.

Dixie told us he was named for a "music hall" performer. The name of the pipe band he was with literally means the electric company in Scotland.
