Hi Peggy,
-------------- Original message --------------
> Hello,
> I'm not a Marshall descendant, but I am trying to learn more about an OLLIE
> MARSHALL who may have lived in Memphis TN some time before 1909. My family
> name was ALLEIN. The Alleins came from Church Hill, Mississippi (Jefferson Co.)
> to Memphis some time around the turn of the century. One address was 712 Tate
> Avenue in Memphis. They were Episcopalians. Some of them are buried at
> Elmwood Cemetery.

> I have a family photo which shows the following people:

> Ella Allein (born 1872 MS - died 1909 Memphis) (my great+ aunt)
> Laura Allein (my great+ aunt who married Johnson and lived in Fraser TN)
> Juliet C. Allein (my great+ aunt) (various jobs included the church book
> store, a corset shop, and stenographer for a lawyers office)
> Ollie Marshall (nothing known about Ollie)

> I'm a terrible judge of people's age but I'd say the ages of these girls
