My mom has a copy of the Lawson book that some others have mentioned on this forum. In it is Elizabeth who was known as "Liz." Her parents were indeed William "Sugar Bill" Lawson and Emelia "Millie." She did have a son with Judson Greer, Claude Greer, who is listed as dying before age 1. There's a picture of her with her mother who is holding baby Claude. I remember this because I was looking for info. in this book myself last Sunday and my mom and I were puzzled by the picture's information. We finally figured out that Elizabeth was incorrectly identified as her older sister Eliza Jane. If you need some further info., I can pass your questions to my mom to check for answers. My ggrandmother Leila Cornelia was a niece of Elizabeth. Donna Williams Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I goofed--the baby's name isn't Claude Furman--the Furman is a mistake on my part.
