AMANDA ORA IVEY AND AMON JACKSON IVEY

from the photograph collection of Joan J. Maddax

The images above were rescanned from color laser prints sent by Joan J. Maddax of Pensacola, Florda. She writes:

"Enclosed you will find a picture of . . . the Ivey family and Amon and Amanda Ivey by themselves.

"Unfortunately, the only members of the Ivey family I can identify are as follows; Amon and Amanda of course 'Little Bessie,' the child seated in Amon's lap, and Allie, the girl to the extreme left. Bessie, as you can see had hydrocephalus. The others are Edna, Jesse, Etter, Howard, Luther, Murry, and Oscar.

"Allie was my husband's grandmother. She and James Mills had 5 children: Lorraine, Murry, Nolan, Barney and Jettie Lee (my husband's mother)...."
