• Notes

  In 1870 Mary Caroline and her family were enumerated as living next to Mary Sorrels and her family, including William Pearson Sorrels. Mary Poplin Sorrels and her daughter-in-law, Harriet Amanda (Mandy) Perryman Sorrels lived together for years after their spouses died. Mary was a large woman and Mandy was a very thin woman (see photo). Their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren referred to Mary as "Big" Grandma. Big Grandma is buried in the same plot as her husband, Wm P. Sorrels, in the Shamrock Cemetery in old Shamrock, OK. The stone does not bear her name, as it was inscribed years before, when William died. The top of the stone however does say "Father - Mother". -Nancy Bell
