Tolbert Family Pictures

Donated by

This is the wedding picture of Charles F. Tolbert and
Cordie / Corda / Cordelia / Cordia Read March 10, 1901.

The lady in the front middle in a black dress is Cordie Read/Tolbert. Her mother, Rebecca Ollie
Smith/Read/Rainwater is at the far left front with the hat on. Does anyone
else know who the others are? They are supposed to be Tolbert's.

BTW...the picture is titled "Cordelia Olive Metsker's family" Cordie
married Charles F. Tolbert, then Wells, Shell, Metsker.

To my understanding, this is Flossie Lappin, Amy Tolbert/Lappin, Florence A.
Baker/Tolbert, Samuel Spencer Tolbert, and Samuel's mother, Louisa E.
Smith/Tolbert.

The couple in the back middle is Samuel Spencer Tolbert and Florence A.
Baker/Tolbert.
The boy in front of them is Clifford Tolbert. The boy standing to the far
left is Carl Charles Tolbert (he apparently moved when the picture was taken).
The boy sitting on the far right with the hat on is Kellie Tolbert and the
girl standing to the far right is Nora Tolbert/Helm. The woman next to Nora
is Cordie Read/Tolbert (Shell, Wells, Metsker). Who are the others?
