"I grew up in Coburn. It was out in the country. My grandmother (Bessie) and Aunt Hollen lived on connecting farms, and my family lived on the farm in front of my grandmothers. My parents and grandparents had a country store so we knew everyone. Bessie, Hollen and Myrtle had a brother named David he never married. I live in Laurel, Maryland now." SOURCE: Avis Dale Ott Morris (Born 25 Dec 1933)

*I remember Aunt Hollen better. It always tickled me that little woman would try to keep the men in check at the reunion. I can remember her looking for a card game and them trying to stay one step ahead of her.  SOURCE: Bobbi Peterson
