Jasper and Viola are buried in Perkins Ridge. He was a Baptist preacher. Leon’s father, Jasper Leland, was named after him. He remembered him as a compassionate man that would cry when he preached. – Sandra Holderby
Randy Evans My 3rd great-grandmother was Martha Morris-Lunsford, married to William Lunsford. I know of the connection, and I’ll have to revisit that. Martha and William are both buried in Woodland. Great picture!!
I have Berkeley’s birth date as 7/11/1917, so I’m guessing the date of this picture would be 1918
Martin Lunsford was my dad. I never knew thin photo existed! What a treasure!
