Georgia Estelle Ward was born 20 Feb 1888 in Attala County, Mississippi.
She died 19 Jul 1975 in Attala County, Misssissippi.
She married John Howard Cummins about 1918 in Attala County, Mississippi.
She is buried in Bluff Springs Cemetery, Attala County, Mississippi.
I remember meeting Estelle when I was very small. My Grandmother, Lottie McLellan went and stayed with her for a while after she was widowed the second time.
Although, she was a cousin to my Grandfather, Gus Ward, Estelle had been childhood freinds with my Grandmother, Lottie. My Grandmother, mentions in her journal about going to visit Uncle Bob Ward's girls meaning Estelle and her sisters.
