ARNOLD was born in Shelby County, Indiana in 1886. Around 1903, she married Albert Anderson in Shelbyville, Shelby County, Indiana. I do know they had one son who was named for his father. He, too, was Albert Anderson. In 1920, he lived with his mother and step-father, Albert M. Dorris in Memphis, Shelby County, TN. Apparently, his father had died or his parents divorced by that time. My great-aunt Ruth and her 2nd husband, Albert M. (Milton) Dorris made their home in Memphis and he had a barber shop on Beale St. I don't know any more about this great-uncle, Albert M. Dorris. However, I did see your post from several years ago. Did you find your Albert M. Dorris? It is, certainly, a shot in the dark. However, I did wonder if there might be a connection if you have found more information by now. I do not know where my Albert M. Dorris or my Ruth L. ARNOLD Anderson Dorris got to. So, that is why I am looking for them, mostly, looking for g-aunt Ruth and ! her son, of course, and any children there might have been from this marriage. Do you know when your Albert M. Dorris was born? The one I am looking for was born about 1881. Since it has been a number of years, I can only hope that you are still on the board and am interested if you think there might be a connection. Thanks!
