=============
The obit lists only Jennie and Mattie Lou. There was one other sister, my mother ,Thelma and two other brothers, Eidson and Byron. I just ran across this web site this week although I've lived here in Thomaston for the past 30 years. You are probably a cousin if you were related to Uncle Irby. If you need any other info about this family just get back in touch and I can supply you with a good bit more.
