Lyde was one of the Morton sisters which included Kathleen, Carrie, Zeta and Vivian “Mick/ey”. Lyde had been married to Hurley Jones. She lived in the little “logger” cabin off the back porch.

This is a poor photo of the Morton Cemetery, but mom and I were down, probably on a Saturday morning and she was mowing.

Mom sitting on the hood of the Old Mercury. I don’t recall the exact story about the Mercury, but I think it was wrecked by someone who drove into it while it was parked in front of the house at 204 Johnson Blvd. in Jacksonville, North Carolina.
