LOL! I'm a direct descendant of Espa's SISTER, Mary Olive Carruth, who married James B. McCollough! We're cousins of some sort. Did you get my email?? Allen was a Baptist preacher & he married my grandparents back in 1926. Am thinking Allen was probably the nephew of James B - from his dob I'd assume so, but have to be careful making assumptions until we find something solid. Checking census records to determine who his parents were. How much do you know of the Poseys??
