The family called her Lucille until her Great Uncle Henry said that name was too long for such a little girl so he said her name was Ceil and that name was hers from then on.
When her mother died, Lucy was sort of farmed out to some friends because no one in the family would take them in. She served as almost a slave for a year for a Mrs. Uhles. Mrs. Uhles was known as a shouting baptist, hypocrite and acted like a witch. She had several children who were very nice to Lucy while she was with them. The children always treated her like a sister. Mr. Uhles' name is unknown. One of the children's daughter is believe to be Hattie Kirby who may lived in the Lafayette, Tennessee area.
Later a Mrs. Stella "Bill" Wyatt got sick and she sent Lucy to help her. Mrs. Wyatt treated her kindly and she became part of her family from then on. Harvey and Bill Wyatt had one son, Harold. They are all passed on now.
She would visit the Wyatt many times after those early years. Lucy's children, Glenn and Joe had fond memories of the nice man and lady but did not know at the time how she fit into the family puzzle until years later.
The Wyatt's are buried in the Spring Hill Cemetery in Nashville, Davidson Co., Tennessee. Harvey Wyatt (1883-1960) 92266510, Stella Link "Bill" Link Wyatt (1896-1971) 196531489 .
