Need help to identify family
members
Update by Peg S.: The ones I can clearly identify are on the right and in the front of the picture: The couple at far right in the back row are my g-grandparents, Morgan Daniel MORRIS and his wife Mary Jane Flora Ruth "Mollie," nee WATSON. Kneeling in front of "Dan" MORRIS is Mollie's father, my g-g-grandfather, Samuel Allison WATSON, b. 1844, migrated to Weakley Co, TN ca. 1867 from Rutherford Co, NC. 2nd and 3rd from the right in the front row are Aubra Carl MORRIS holding my mother, Ruth Ellen (MORRIS) SCHORFHEIDE and Carl's wife Jessie Lillian, nee CANDLER holding Mom's older sister, Alice Jean (MORRIS) HEGGEMEIER. Tthe location of M.D. MORRIS's home was about a mile and a half north/northwest of Dresden, and there was something about crossing the Meridian line to get there. The rest of the folks in this photo would be Grandpa's siblings and in-laws, including some or all of the following: Vera Lillian MORRIS b. 1886 m. Almarine "Jack" C. ALLEN Lyda Maud MORRIS b. 1888 m. Wesley VICKERS Floyd Leonard MORRIS b. 1895 m. Opal Mae MOON in 1917 Aubra Carl MORRIS b. 1897 m. 1st Annielar ADKINS, 2nd Jessie Lillian CANDLER in 1921 Zula May MORRIS b. 1899 m. Calvin INSCO in 1915 Orpha Talulah MORRIS b. 1902 m. Sam WRIGHT Hubert Finch MORRIS b. 1905 m. 1st Hortense SMITH, 2nd Pauline BOYTE I remember meeting Great-uncle Hubert, who would be 19-20 in this picture, and would bet money he's the tall man standing next to Great-grandma MORRIS (third from right in back row).........Peg Schorfheide |
