  • Notes 
    • "Mamie"

      Stories told to Tammy Beckemeyer from Beryl Audrey Purdin Southard and
      Dorothy Bernice Southard
      Edgar..
      Mamie was tall for a woman of her day about 5ft 9. She was taller than
      her husband.
      She also was a very private person. A lot of stories had to be told after
      her death.
      She walked a great deal about 8 to 10 miles a day till she was very old.
      People were amazed at how
      far she would go for her age. (see note under spouse)
