They lived in the SE section of Calhoun County in the Bentley community. Mom (84 yrs. old)couldn't remember her husband's name. According to mom they had 6 boys: Jessie, Brewer, Bus, Bob, Pid, and one more (she couldn't remember his name). They had no girls. Mom's sister, Beulah Russell (no relation) was married to Jessie Ross Russell(born probably around 1920)who I remember well. These names are likely nicknames-I seem to recall that they are. There is a Russell family cemetary located in that community where Addie and others are buried. Ms Allie, as Mom calls her, painted a lot. I have one of the pictures she painted. I will see if I can contact one of my cousins in Bentley if you think this might be the same group. email me at aeaster@hotmail Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
