Hello, I am looking for anyone who may have information on A Carmichael family that lived
in Hattiesburg Miss. My grand mother was born Jhonnie Lanora Carmichael May 15, 1892 in
Georgia,I don't know when they moved to Miss. But she had sisters Nelly, Lilly,( Lilly
married Al Harris) Lotty, & a brother not sure of his name. Maybe Ross or Theoidore.
Her father had a dry goods store in Hattiesburg for most of their lives. My grandmother
married William Otto Allsup of Alabama. They eventually moved to Texas & owned a drug
store that was destroyed in Galveston's 1915 storm. They later moved to Houston where
they built Allsup's Variety Store On East Mount Houston Rd.Their home was in the back
of the store, where they lived and worked until the death of my grandfather in 1956. My
grandmother sold the store and moved next door to my father(Darrell Danforth Allsup &
mother on Eastover in 1958. If any of this sounds famuliar to anyone please contact me
through this site. My main goal!
is to find the name of Jhonnie Lanora Carmichael Allsup's Father & Mother so I
may trace their history. Thank you
