Seated on the right are "Dee" parents Charles PARKER Sr. and Elizabeth Ann DAVIS. One can assume the parents of Effa are standing on the left they are Margrette Allena DAVIES and Robert Madison MULLINER.

Because of the DAVIES/DAVIS relationship of their mothers John Davis PARKER and Effa Mariah MULLINER are third cousins as well as spouses. Their common ancestors are George MORRIS and Catherine ANTHONY.
