Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

I love the way people always lean into a photograph and there is always so much room around. So, Ella is the great grandmother? Rubinetta is the mother of Phyllis and Alberta is another daughter?
Your theory is my theory. I found another obituary which is in conflict with our theory, need the 1940 census for clarity of Beatrice's daughters.
I am so glad I stopped by to see your post. This is three generations? I wonder what the occasion was. Thank you for sharing.
There might be four generations. I imagine Beatrice, along with her daughter Rubinetta and granddaughter Phyllis, came by after church to visit with Beatrice's mother Ella and her sister Alberta the caregiver.

Quarles is not a common surname. Most, if not all of the Quarles from Franklin, Jefferson or Lincoln County, Mississippi, descend from Barney Quarles born about 1825 in Virginia.
