At a later date I will go thru the document more thoroughly but just a couple of things came to my mind. Isn't it interesting that Ivy Payne married Alva Allan Sharp and she also had a sister named Alva? Also I read somewhere that Ivy's name was actually Eva Ivy? Did you see that anywhere. When I was growing up I remember that she addressed her name as Iva and Alva Sharpe. Also on Homer Ware's death. He did not die from infection from surgery. Pappy had congestive heart failure and died at my Mom's home where she had been taking care of him for many years. Actually her mother, Letha Pearl, died following a hysterectomy and subsequent infection when my Mom was only about 3 to 4 years old. She and her sister Dorothy Dimple, were then raised subsequently by grandmothers who soon died and then finally Madie Vallandingham came into the picture and married Homer and some point after caring for the children for a bit. Then Madie went on to have Helen, Betty Sue (also known as Susie, still living) and Bill Frank Ware who died at the age of 30 of a sudden heart attack. Thanks again for doing this. I am going to share this with my sons. They will be so excited. Sandy |
