Jimmy was my mother's first cousin(Alice Williams). His mother Ruth, and my grandmother Ruby were twin sisters. Jimmy and his wife (Cynthia "Diane") visited our home quite often in Camden. My mother loved her first cousin and was grief stricken when he died at such an early age in a car accident. Aunt Ruth, Aunt Mildred, and Grandma Ruby would all give birth to a child in 1943 - Jimmy, Richard (Lockridge) and my mother ( Margaret Alice Hines Williams). Both Jimmy and Richard died at early ages.
