Aunt Dollie had a sister named Flora. I have researched for sixteen years and had never heard of Flora until Ken Lee asked last year if I knew of Flora Lee. I was shocked for I had never heard of Flora. My mission was to find her. You can read about Flora on my blog. Flora was younger than Aunt Dollie.

There was a lady named Annie and her daughter Flora who came to live my my grandparents and help my grandmother. I have heard that they might have been related to them. When Dolly no longer needed Annie's help, my Aunt Retha and Uncle Morris took them for years. Flora married and I assume Annie went to live with her. I used to see them at family reunions when I was very young. They were like family.

There is blogger named Kittie who posted a picture of a tombstone with Noah's name on it and a name Leman listed as a half sibbling. There is a distant cousin in Texas, last name Crawford who used to come to Alabama and she was in to genealogy, but we don't know if she was on the Lee or Edwards side of the family. My sister Gail is going to contact her.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814358262793082115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576548009191392931.post-8959809163494251392018-01-08T15:42:30.807-08:002018-01-08T15:42:30.807-08:00Marvin EdwardsMarvin EdwardsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814358262793082115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576548009191392931.post-55261776503661494392018-01-08T15:19:59.100-08:002018-01-08T15:19:59.100-08:00Thank you for stopping by Joyce and leaving a comm...Thank you for stopping by Joyce and leaving a comment. My three remaining siblings and I have happy memories of our "Alabama folks" coming to Louisiana to visit. Mother and Daddy had eight children, six daughters and two sons. You can read more about that on this blog. Who was your father?
