Dovie Mary Martin Allison - Paternal Grandmother

Dovie Mary Martin Allison - Paternal Grandmother
 (Birth: 8 Apr 1894 in Putnam, TN - Death: 4 Sep 1933 in Silver Point, Dekalb, TN) 
 When Dovie was born on April 8, 1894, in Putnam, Tennessee, her father, Alexander, was 27 and her mother, Nancy, was 24. She married William Luther Allison (My Paternal Grandfather) on May 23, 1920, in Putnam, Tennessee. They had seven children in 11 years. 
 Dovie died at the age of 39 - my daddy was only 11 years old. 
 Ironically, Dovie's mother, Nancy E. Myatt, died when Dovie, too, was only 11 years old.
