***Victoria's note: When you look at the photocopy of the original page and compare the last names of these neighbors you can see that "Giffnis" is really "Jeffries". For some reason someone wrote a "G" over the "J" in Jeffries and obscured the last name slightly, but this census takers handwriting has very distinct patterns and the name is definitely Jeffries.Lan married Duke, Laura Pamelia on 15 Feb 1891. Laura (daughter of Duke, James Enoch and MacKey, Martha J.) was born on 07 Sep 1866 in , Taylor, Georgia; died on 26 Aug 1931 in Phenix City, Russell, Alabama; was buried in Aug 1931 in Girard Cemetery, Phenix City, Russell, Alabama.

Died:
Barbara Conway died only 4 days following her first birthday from an unnamed illness which produced vomiting and convulsions. Still barely coping with this tragedy, a second child Gerald Clinton Conway was born on Dec 11, 1930, and died seven days later. Premature and weak, Gerald was never able to nurse enough to sustain life. In her own words, Myrtle wrote, "At twelve thirty-five the morning of the seventh day the Lord called Gerald home to join Him and Barbara. What joy there must have been in Heaven. Can't you just see The Master as He stood with outstretched arms greeting and welcoming first Barbara then Gerald to live with Him through eternity."
