MARSHALL MILES
ACCORDING TO MY DAN MILES SR THERE WAS A MAN WHO CAME FROM IOWA WITH HIS FAMILY AND HIS OWN SLAVES, AND HIS OWN WAGON TRAIN. AFTER RESEARCH I BELIEVE THE MAN WAS ONE OF OUR GRANDPARENTS.
ACCORDING TO LULA MAE, THE NIGHT MARSHALL MILES DIED, HIS BROTHER GEORGE MILES STOPPED BY THERE HOUSE AND PICKED UP A WATCH BELONGING TO MARSHALL MILES AND MOVED TO MISSISSIPPI. WHILE IN MISSISSIPPI HIM AND OZIE MAE WROTE LETTERS TO ONE ANOTHER. LULA MAE BELIEVE THE LETTERS ARE IN OZIE MAE'S PERSONELL BELONGING AT NINA MAE'S HOUSE.
