A biography of E. F. Ingram, operator of Ingram’s Theatre in Ashland says that “[i]n July of 1939, he also opened a second theater in Lineville, the ‘Lineville Theater.’” The 2014 obituary of E. F.’s son, Earnest Allen Ingram, says that “[a]fter military service he returned to Clay County to run the family theaters in Ashland and Lineville for another 30 years.” The military service referred to was during WWII, so at least one of the family theaters must have been open into the mid-1970s.

In its day it was operated by the Ingram family of Ashland together with the Ingram Theatre in that town.

Does anyone know of any updates concerning the Lineville Theater? A picture without the glaring sun would be appreciated.
