Biography

In 1940 Lissy is living with her granddaughter Gussie's family in Okaloosa County, Florida. The census page for 1940 reads Township 5, which is north Okaloosa County bordering Alabama. So likely they were living in the area around Laurel Hill, Florida as Lissy had Adams relatives living there. ^[1]
