William Perry Lord Famiy Photos

William Perry Lord Family Photos

William Perry Lord (1877 – 1955) and Lillie Bell Tarpley (1875 – 1945)
and their three oldest children, Albert Eugene (1899 – 1956), Willie Lou (1901 – 1969)
and infant Mintora (1904 – 1937). I assume the photo was taken in late 1904 or early 1905.
The couple had one other child, my mother, Anna Bell Lord Toler, who was born in 1912.
William Perry Lord was the son of James Etheldred Lord and Vianna Thompson Lord.
Lillie Bell Tarpley was the daughter of Thomas Manson Tarpley and Leanda Vanlandingham
Tarpley. Albert Eugene Lord relocated to Atlanta and married Nell Parker, a widow.
Willie Lou Lord married Bernice Ivy Fordham. Mintora married Robert Lee Walters.

I assume the occasion was a family reunion of sorts as Bessie Lord Wilkes and her family
made their home in Glynn County, GA, near Brunswick,
and Rufus Lord and his family lived in Wheeler County.
