Carolyn: So are - Speedy Waters of Amherst & sisters Bonnie Morris of Peaster, Texas and Easter Lilly Keene of Planfield, Ind the children of Nim & Cora? Did Nim Watters & Nellie Branscum have any children? I'm assuming that the the Birmingham Cemetery is located in Birmingham, OH. Do you know who the parents of Cora are?
