This week’s photo is of Emmett Conrad, Max Collins, and Ira Conrad.
Emmett and Ira were brothers and their parents were: Columbus and Julia Lawrence Conrad. Julia’s parents were: Anderson and Dianna Lantz Lawrence. Julia was one of eight children; she had a brother Adam Harness Lawrence. Adam’s daughter was Marie Lawrence who was married to Max Collins. Thus, Emmett and Ira were first cousins to Marie; who was married to Max Collins. The Conrad’s lived just inside the Tucker County line at the bottom of the Red Creek Hill before crossing into Randolph County. Ideas or comments contact Tim Turner (304) 478-3389.
