Can anyone give me the names of the parents of James Miles, husband of Bessie Daggs? (See her obituary below) I believe they were married about 1907, but I have not been able to find a record of their marriage. According to the information I have found the children were Ruby and Hazel Miles. They are living with their maternal grandparents James and Alice R. (Terrill) Daggs on the 1920 census. I would appreciate any help you can give. Ms. Cecil V. Boyd "The Higbee News" Friday, 6 Aug 1915 MRS. JAMES MILES DEAD One of the saddest deaths THE NEWS has ever been called upon to record was that of Mrs. James Miles, which occurred at her home at 9:30 p.m. Friday, July 30, 1915. With her husband and two small children, she had spent the day with neighborhood relatives and friends, and reached home about 7 o'clock, joyous and happy over the pleasures of the day and in the bloom of youthful vigor. Shortly after retiring she was seized with a violent fit of coughing, which caused the rupture of a blood vessel in her brain, and before medical aid could be summoned, she was beyond the reach of all earthly help, death having resulted from cerebral hemorrhage. Funeral services were held Sunday at the Christian church by the pastor, Eld. W. St. Clair. the immense crowd which packed the edifice spoke more highly than words of the high esteem in which she was held, and of the deep sympathy felt for the bereaved ones. Interment was made in the city cemetery. Besides her husband and two little children, she is survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Daggs, all of whom have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community.
How does this family fit in with the Chas. Miles family? I knew of two daughters of Chas., Mrs. Charla Mae Bartee of Yates and Mrs. Lucille Moore of Higbee.
