Elizabeth Ann Stout Cox Memories
I make my heritage layouts busy because I have so many histories and photos of my ancestors and want to give my children an overview of their ancestors' lives. I put just enough on the page that they will want to read more.
My aunt went to all of the aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. and scanned their photos with a promise that she would give them a disk with all of the photos from everyone. Now we have a wonderful collection. Each family had only one or two or so, but when we combined them, we have a treasure! I have also found relatives online who have shared their photos and histories of the ancestors. When we share, we all "win".

I’ve learned the Lord doesn’t give us anything our backs can’t bear. Elizabeth Ann Stout Cox
“Lizzie was the dress-maker & sales woman of the house.
She did most of the buying, especially the shoes. She was a
good judge of leather.”
She lived with her son Warren. He installed an indoor bathroom and she refused to use it. When questioned as to why, she told him, “Why should I let everyone in the house know what I am doing?” His retort, “No but you let everyone in the neighborhood know when you use the outhouse” convinced her to use the more convenient indoor bathroom.
