Cora Belle Allen married James Robert Chappell. James Robert had come from Birmingham to Mobile with his father George Washington Chappell and brother Alexander Chappell to work in the Mobile shipyards. James and Alex met Cora and younger sister Lutisha at a dance in Wheelerville. After WWI, James, George, Alex, Dan, and Henry Chappell built houses for Alabama Realty. James and Cora had four children; Robert ("Robbie") who died at age 13 of measels, Lewis Calvin (now 90), Harvey (died Dec. 1999), and Audrey (86). Lewis Calvin married Bernice Whatley from Clarke Co. Lewis worked with Alabama Realty and designed houses in Mobile that were built and still stand in the Government Street area. Lewis designed the Prichard City Hall building and the "Roxy". Lewis worked his way up at International Paper to become head of maintenance. Lewis and Bernice had six sons. Their eldest son, Lewis Calvin, Jr., married Karin Smith. Lewis and Karin had one son, L.C. III (Chip). Harvey Chappelle also worked with Alabama Realty and International Paper. Harvey was an excellent mechanic and carpenter. He had the vision to go into the Hardware business (first with Prim Broadus - does anyone out there know any stories about Prim or his being in business with Harvey Chappelle?) and was a fixture in Prichard for many years with Harvey's Hardware on Wilson Ave.
