Some Names in Grammy's Life

As I try to trace the family tree and make some sense of it all...

These names were listed in the back of my mother's baby book. They are referrered to as they would have been related to my mother: (Marlane Morin)

  • Great Grandmother and Grandfather Fox
  • Great Grandmother Walters
  • Great Grandmother Strang and Pop
  • Great Aunt & Uncle Annie & George Henderson (sp?)
  • Great Great Aunt Annie Greir (sp?)
  • Great Great Aunt Veda and Uncle
  • Great Aunt Josie & Uncle Richard Hatch
  • Great Aunto Harriet & Uncle George Walters
  • Great Aunt Eva & Uncle Archie McKie
  • Great Aunt Ruth and Uncle Jimmy Maurice (?) Walters
  • Great Aunt Lillie Fox and Uncle Bill Fox
  • Great Uncle James Fox and Aunt Carol
  • Great Uncle Louis Fox
  • Great Great Aunt Celie

Louis and Cora Bell were my mother's great grandparents, (Marlane Morin) They were the parents of Lillian Fox who married George Thompson and were my grandmother's parents, (Marion Thompson), and my mother's grandparents. ​

We are trying to figure out the relationship of Della May Fox to Louis Fox~ Della was born in 1870 in St. Louis, Missouri, while Louis Fox, my mother's great grandfather, was also born in 1870, New York. ​

If Della's sister, Lillian Fox, (if it's the same one mentioned in the above listing), was my mother's great aunt, I can only deduce...Nothing! I need to keep digging. :) ​

Now, here's an interesting name that I have no clue about, but my mother always remembered as being a relative because the name struck her as unusual: Barzillah Knight

My mother thinks this person is on the English side of her mother's family history. That's a whole other story!
