Classification: Query
Surnames: Tims, Scoggin, Snyder, Willis, Sumpter
Allison Tims, wife Lena (Scoggins), children, Genevieve, Marjorie and Maurice. They lived in Missouri then at some point went to Arkansas. Little Maurice died and at some point they moved to LA area. Allison died and was taken back to Little Rock to be buried by his son. Lena never returned to Missouri and died in California:

TIMS, Lena Scoggin, loving mother of Mrs. Grant Snyder of Los Angeles and Mrs. Marjorie Willis of Rivera, Cal.; also survived by 3 sisters, 1 grandchild and 1 great-grandchild.
Services Tuesday, 1 p.m., at Moftell's & Peek Chapel, 3rd and Alamito's, Long Beach.

I have a letter she wrote where she speaks of Genevieve (who must be the Mrs. Snyder) not being well; of Marjorie having a 16 y/o son at the time of the letter (1944) and that Marjorie had at one point been in Gulfport with her husband who was stationed there and later served in the South Pacific. I have a picture of her with one of her cousins ( a Sumpter ).

I would love to be able to fill in some blanks with this.

Thanks, LuAnn
