The family then moved back to Laurel Hill. This info is from Rosa Lee Dilley before she died. Oscar(a big red-headed man that lived in Mississippi and only had one hand from a saw mill accident), Floyd (I think was a school teacher in central Florida), Carrie (was a victim of polio in her late teens and lived with her Mother until her mother's death then maintained her own household from her wheelchair) There was at least one other child a girl that was killed in a car accident as a young married woman. She had at least one child of her own. This young girl was reared by the Dilley's and married and lived in Pensacola, Florida. Her husband's name may be Exum. Alex Brown married Minnie Ealum from Glendale, Florida. That place may have been called Ealum. As there is an Ealum in the census from times past.
