Person:Allie Pratt (2)

Posted on the Milam Co Rootsweb msg board: "From the book "Some Central Texas Obituaries" compiled by the Milam County Genealogical Society there's an obit: Mrs. Allie Pratt Jackson of Austin. Age 88. Died 4/1982 (Sat.) in Seton Hospital after a long illness. Services held (Monday) in the Salty Community Church. Burial in Salty Cemetery. Revs. Ed Wilder and Clarence Walton officiated. Phillips & Luckey, Rockdale, in charge of arrangements.

"She was born 1/5/1894 in Paris, Tx. to M/M. Charles Lee & Mollie Elliott Pratt. Married Jesse Jackson on 11/11/1911 in Rockdale. She was a member of the Trinity United Methodist Church. Preceded in death by husband, Jesse Jackson on 12/27/1947 and son, Jesse Woodrow Jackson in 1976. Memorials to Amer. Heart Asso. Survivors: 2 sons, Wayne Jackson of Austin and Norman Jackson of Dallas; daughter, Mrs. Allyne Griffin of Austin; sister, Mrs. Audy Albert of Corpus Christi; 7 grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren."

Her son, Wayne's obit said his parents were Jess and Allie Stiles Jackson. So I'm unsure where they 'Stiles' names comes from. But a message on the Milam msg board does say that Allie was orphaned young; so perhaps Stiles is the name of the family that raised her.
