Editor Note

Lomax announces her age as 56 (b. June 5, 1871 in Clay Co.
d. 31 Dec 1944 in Clay Co.). Census gives her father's name as Leondas B. Nicholson, so perhaps George C. was an uncle. The AFS card gives the location as Laurel County, but Lomax announces on 1503B1 that Nicholson's home in Providence is in Clay Co. on the edge of Laurel.
