The following is an excerpt from a taped interview with Avis Lammon Atkinson in 1988:
AUNT AVIS: Yeah. When he came home from the Navy -- he was in the Navy when we moved here. And I never did tell her anything about Elmer -- him anything about Una, nor Una anything about Elmer. But after he came home, he said, why didn't you tell me about this gal? And she said the same thing. I mean, they fell for each other, and I can't remember how soon they married, but they married secretly. And once she and I went to Montgomery -- I've got to tell this too. This is kind of cute I thought. We went to Montgomery and Uncle Archie lived there. Uncle Archie -- I don't know how many children he has, but he had, at least, twelve. But, at that time, he didn't have any. But Olin, his second oldest child, had married, and had a new wife there. And Una was married, but I don't think that anybody knew it except me and Elmer. So Uncle Archie was -- they were real generous with food, and so we set out to get ice cream for lunch after a big dinner. and instead of getting a gallon of ice cream, they came in with -- from the ice cream factory with a five-gallon urn with -- you know, in the freezer with like -- you know, like we used to make. And Owen's wife went over -- everybody, when they got through eating was going to get a dish and getting ice cream. And Olin's wife went to get her some, and she looked up at Olin and said, Olin, if you want any of this, come and get it. These younguns are eating it all up. All right. That was Uncle Archie.

Archie married Lula Vinette Jerkins on 6 May 1900 in Geneva County, Alabama. Lula was born on 15 Aug 1884 in Dale County, Alabama; died on 10 Aug 1959; was buried in Hartford City Cemetery, Hartford, Geneva County, Alabama. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

"The historical record roll of Co. E, 15th Alabama Infantry Regiment shows James Lammon, Private, enlisted in the Confederate Army August 3, 1862 at Newton (formerly Westville) Alabama. He was honorably discharged from the service on the 13th day of April 1865. The James Lammon family moved from the Barnes X Roads in 1893 to settle in Geneva County. They spent the first year in what was known as the Kinsaul Community and in 1894 they bought land and moved to Hartford, where they cleared land and farmed. Later they organized a milling company and operated sawmills, planer mills, a variety shop, gristmill and a cotton gin. They were a busy family and attended church about two miles from their home, the Pondtown Methodist, until the town grew enough to build and support one, which was only a few years."

"The first time real tragedy struck in the family was in 1902 when their 20-year-old son, James Olin, died suddenly. He is buried in the Pondtown Methodist Church Cemetery. In 1906 a beautiful two-story home was built of choice timbers saved over the years for this purpose. The outstanding feature of the home was the wide veranda all around the house with decorative woodwork and banisters. Another tragedy of the family was when the home and practically all of the furnishings were completely destroyed by fire March 31, 1911."

The following note from Elmer Burns Lammon:

In corresponding with Wanda Gale Stafford, a descendant of Frances Caroline Lammon, she showed James Lammon as having the middle name Daniel. I wrote and told her that I had never known that he had a middle name and asked her for the source. She replied, "I received a handwritten copy of Snell and Lammons family information. The Snell outline was of my gg gf Wilburn and his wives (2) and children and the Lammons family Info page reads like this:

Smith side of family - From Lammons family records. Grandmother Mary Ann Rebecca Smith. (then lists the family info)

Mary Ann "Mollie" was the second wife (my gg gm) of Wilburn Snell. Mollie's mother was Francis Caroline Lammons that married James F. Smith. Your ancestor's name was listed with both names that I gave you.

I was told it was taken from a family bible. The bible was held by one of my gg aunt's, but I do not know who got it when she died. The document was very yellow and old looking. I made a copy and mailed the original back to its
owner."

As this source is as good or better than most of my sources, I will use it.

James married Mary Jane Barnes on 29 Dec 1870 in Barnes Cross Roads, Dale, Alabama. Mary (daughter of Edward Barnes and Sarah Francis Dean) was born on 28 Nov 1850. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
