Snipes-Wall in Ellaville, Schley Co, GA

In Reply to: Re: Charles D Snipes Died 1958 by Bill Snipes of 740

This transcription is from a newspaper clipping found in the old scrapbook of my great-grandmother Mahala HOLMES NASH (1860-1938), of Statham, Barrow Co, GA. Last names have been capitalized, but no other editing was done. The clipping did not have a date on it. There were other clippings, and I've posted this one with those on the WALL forum. This appears to be from the Ellaville, Schley Co, GA, newspaper.

Gleanings are that
Z. T. WALL md Mollie SNIPES, sister of Z. T. SNIPES and Mrs. Seaborn ALLEN. Mollie's 2 daughters and 2 sons are also listed.

I do not know of a familial connection with this family, but I believe my grandmother Mamie NASH MCBRIDE (1882-1957) nursed the family members during the 1920's. Hope this helps someone!
