More on Loudelle Holliman Ferrell, (1914 - 1998)
the Fourth Child of Ulyss and Pearl Holliman
Charles Ferrell matriculated at Yale Divinity School in New Haven. Here is the young man, about to be ordained a Methodist Church minister in 1932. Graduate students in the Depression dressed in suit and tie for class. No back pack in sight for this scholar.
The thirties were progressing. Here in what I believe to be 1934 are Loudelle and Ida Holliman embracing in front of Robert and Vena Holliman Daly's house which had just been built adjacent to Pearl and Ulyss's on 3rd Avenue in Irondale, Alabama. Ida Hughes had married Melton Holliman in 1932. Hem lines were a bit longer for women in the early 1930s compared to the early 1940s or middle 1920s.
