Adventures in Southern Genealogy

Formerly known as Our Southern Heritage

Charlie McCollum of Fayette County, Alabama

I'd like to figure out who all is in this photo.  I'm quite sure that we see Charlie and Martha McCollum seated at the head of the table.  Charlie had three girls and three boys when he married Martha.  I do not know right now if she had children when they married.  They had three sons together.  So I assume that the three ladies seated to Charlie's left are Victoria, Louetta and Dezzie McCollum, all daughters of the deceased Dorthy Ford McCollum.  But who are the five men?  There were at least six sons:  Newton, Felix and Alvie (sons of Dorthy) and Claude, Ausburn and Charles (sons of Martha).

Here are five generations of McCollums:  Charlie, Dezzie, Nina, her daughter and grandchild.

This photo is of Charlie and Martha with their dog whose name I do not know.  They traveled extensively in this makeshift motorhome.
