English Album #3 Allie B.'s Siblings and their children.

Hello English Cousins. I am posting the pictures again. More to come.......


Alma Viola English left and her sister Ruby English right. Their names are on the back of photo. We don't know the date of photo but we are guessing early 20's. Alma Viola was born in 1907 and Ruby in 1910.


Effie Mae English Foxworth, died age 20 and left behind two beautiful twin girls and one little boy. I don't have much information about them and This is the only picture I have of her. I have met her grandaugther and hope to gather together some more pictures from Jesse and Shirley.

I think Jesse said this was at their house in Flamingo Hills.



Tullie and Rosa Lee English Childree. Uncle Tullie was so handsome. I remember him as a kind and gentle man. He and Aunt Rosa Lee came to visit Granny often. They had 3 children, Bill, Merry Nell and Kenneth. 
Rosa Lee born in 1915, was 4 years old when her mother, Lula died in 1919 during child birth. Her older sisters helped their father, Jesse English raise her, until his death in 1926. At the time of Jesse's death he and Rosa Lee and Anderson lived with Allie B. and Henry and their children in Rehobeth, Alabama.
Aunt Rosa Lee grew up more like a sister to my Granny, Luvern and Aunt Louise. I remember asking Granny why she called her Aunt Rosa Lee. She was almost the same age as Granny. She answered, "Because she is my aunt, Katie."

I am not sure if this is Merry Nell, it may be Sue or Carolyn!  Help Jesse and Sue!

Interesting picture! The lady and little girl are Aunt Rosa Lee and Merry Nell, probably same time as the previous picture. The lady posing with the hand behind her head is Aunt Eunice.

Rosa Lee and Kenneth her youngest son.
