Comments

William Herring Bright and Swannie Blanche Scott Bright were my grandparents. They had nine children. Their surviving child, my aunt (born 1919), said the family moved to 1109 Liberty Street when she was two years of age. The last three of their children, including my father, Charles Marlon Bright (05/23/24-01/17/95), were born in this home. My grandfather resided there until his death (02/53) and my grandmother moved from Liberty Street in 1954 or '55.
