I Saw The Marker
My father, Coley Morris and grandmother, Grace McKinney Morris, lived here with Uncle Mape and Aunt Nora after my grandfather passed away. The current owners of the house are the second owners and plan on keeping the house in the family. The house is kept as close as possible to original.
