The Carden and Perry family line
Talulah Mae Akins Carden was my great-great-grandmother. In the family, she was Granny Carden. She lived from 1885 to 1978.
Her daughter, Euna Mae Carden Perry, was Wanda Dale Perry’s mother. That family line continues through my father, Perry Wayne Hollingsworth, to me.
