Life History

Notes

• One might think Mary Lou was named after her father, named James Lou Talley in several genealogies.  But we note that on his daughter's Social Security records, he is reported as James C Talley.  Some genealogies list her as Mary Lou Tugmon, but her Social Security records spell the middle name ocnsistently Lue.
