Person:Ethel Nix (1)

some data from Home Page, Jerrie Nadine Van Oel/Eubanks <tlgpepsin1mdew2earthlink.net>, from Elizabeth to Isabell

I have that Ethel Nix's middle name was Elizabeth not Isabell; but I am not for sure if that is correct. For the moment I will keep both Elizabeth and Isabell for her middle name until I find out for sure which it is. If you know for sure that it is Isabell, please let me know. I have that Ethel was born in August 1886 at Warrior Valley, Etowah County, AL.
