hymns. Her father, my Uncle George, always was delighted in hearing her and I
sing and play. She taught school for a few years, then married a young man from
Jefferson County by the name of Emmert Bryan. When World War I came along
he and Ruby went to Virginia where he worked as a ship builder until the war
was over. He later returned to Morrison, Tennessee where he worked as a cabinet
maker. Ruby died in 1925 and is buried at Wesley’s Chapel in Jefferson County.
Ruby left three small children, namely, Jack, Lena Maud and Robert. Emmert,
after trying to keep his little family together, in a few years after Ruby’s death
married a lady by the name of Kate Nottingham, re-establishing his little home
again. Emmett and Kate have one daughter of their own. Her name is Bonnie Joe.
Jack, the oldest child of Emmett and Ruby Cox Bryan, is a great fellow and I
could write much about him. I will put this incident in. His grandmother, my
Aunt Loretta Nichols Cox, came to visit me in Cleveland, Ohio, about 1939,
Jack slipped away from home and -hitch-hiked to Cleveland from Tennessee, about
three weèks after his grandmother came to visit us. He found employment here in
Cleveland, Ohio, and worked until the beginning of World War II. He immedi-
ately enlisted in the United States Navy and spent five years serving his country
with a fine record. I personally am very proud of Jack. He married a girl by
the name of Florence Brown. They have four children, namely, Joseph W., James,
Phillip T. and Jackie S.
Lena Maud, second child of Emmert and Ruby Cox Bryan, is typical in stature
of the Nichols women folk, small and petite and eyes which are so typical of the
Nichols women folk. She married L. C. Truan, Jr. They have three children,
namely, Nancy, Charles and Martha.
Robert, third child of Emmert and Ruby Cox Bryan, is a fine young man. He
served in the United States Marine Corps in World War II with a fine record.
He is now employed as an accountant by a firm located in Knoxville, Tenn. He
married Ruth Peters from Oakridge, Tenn. They have three children, namely
Jerry, Darrel and Priscilla.
Robert McKinley Cox, youngest son of George and Loretta Nichols Cox. I do
not know too much about Robert as I left Tennessee and was in the north all
during his childhood and young manhood. I would see him along with the others
when I visited there. My son Wyatt McKinley Nichols, Jr. and Robert resembled
each other very much in looks as they were both fair and carried their baby faces
even after they were young men. Robert farmed with his folks and was very
quiet and never had too much to say. His untimely death as a young man was a
shock to all of us and he is buried at Wesley’s Chapel where the rest of his
immediate family is buried.
ROBERT RUSSELL WYATT NICHOLS
(MY FATHER)
Robert Russell Wyatt Nichols was born in Sevierville, Term., Oct. 12, l872,
second child of John and Martha (Reneau) Nichols. When just a babe in arms
his mother took him and his older sister Loretta to Missouri where their father
had gone to work, a short time previously. There were other Nichols’ in that
Missouri Area. However, the climate and the chills affected his mother and older
sister so badly they had to return to Tennessee, when my father was still very small.
My father attended the local schools in and around the Sandy Ridge and
Muddy Creek Area and while attending the school that was taught by one of my

PETERS-WILLIAMSON
Miss Lola Ethel Williamson and Mr. Ernest Lester Peters of Knoxville were united in marriage at the home of the bride's parents Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Williamson, 716 Broadway, Sunday, Nov. 6th at 2 o'clock. The ceremony was performed by Rev. G. M. Moreland, pastor of the Southern Methodist church, and was a very quiet affair, witnessed only by relatives and intimate friends of the bride. The bride is the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Williamson of this city. She possesses a lovable disposition which has won for her a host of friends who will regret to learn that her marriage takes her elsewhere to reside. The groom is an accomplished young man and holds a responsible position with the Knox Stove Works at Knoxville. The happy couple motored to their home in Knoxville immediately after ceremony, where a furnished bungalow was awaiting them. They have the heartiest congratulations of their many friends.

Ethel Cox Harrison, third child of George and Loretta Nichols Cox. Ethel is a little different dispositioned than her sister Minnie. She is very mild mannered with one of the nicest dispositions of any one I have ever known. She is very much like her father Uncle George Cox, taking things as they came in stride and smiling along with the bad as well as the good. She is a lovely alto singe rand one of my fondest memories of her and her sister Minnie singing duets when I would be visiting them as a small boy She married Daniel Harrison Aug 24, 1908, he was a local boy of Jefferson County and managed our grandfather's store that was located near her home.

Several years ago Dan’s health became impaired and he had a stroke and was a semi-invalid for a good many years but with all of this neither he nor Ethel would complain. I remember very well the last time I saw Dan. I visited their home and he had a fine garden of flowers and vegetables. Even though handicapped he kept smiling. He died a few years ago; and is buried in the Morristown Cemetery.
Ethel and Dan had eight children, namely, Amos, George, Turner, Lucille, Frank and Cora (twins), Helen and Margaret.

Irvin Ray "I. Ray" King, M.D., age 76, of Knoxville, passed away early Friday morning, September 25, 2015. He was born on September 14, 1939 in Rutherford, Tennessee. Dr. King received his undergraduate degree from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and his M.D. degree from the University of Tennessee, Memphis. He was proud of his service as a Lieutenant in the United States Naval Reserve Medical Corps. He had a private practice in Knoxville for over 30 years and was a renowned pioneer in the medical field performing the first laparoscopic surgery in Knoxville and the first in vitro fertilization in Knoxville, after learning the procedure in England. After leaving Knoxville in 2003 he went on to work in Alabama and retired from his career at Eglin Air Force Base, Ft. Walton Beach, FL. He served as Director of East TN Regional Obstetrical Program; President and Chairman Board of Directors, Maternity Center of East TN; and Clinical Instructor to Assistant Clinical Professor, University of TN Graduate School of Medicine, Knoxville, TN. Dr. King was a dedicated physician and always put his patients first. He was kind, humble, compassionate and a gentle-spirited man, a loving husband and devoted father and grandfather. If you were fortunate enough to know him you were blessed. He was a great teacher and loved learning. He was an avid pilot in earlier years and loved watching airplanes. He could look in the sky and tell you what kind of plane it was and where it was headed. He also loved studying his genealogy, and he loved to tell stories of his many adventures in life – over and over! He enjoyed spending time with, and cooking for, friends and family. He loved working in the yard and gardening, woodworking, reading, fishing, bird watching, snow skiing, and he loved all of his furry friends at home as well. Dr. King was preceded in death by his parents, Lowell and Myrle King; daughter and son-in-law, Lisa (King) and Tom Smith; brothers, Russell, Harold, Bobby and Jere King; sister, Mildred Lowe. He is survived by his wife, Pamela King; son and daughter-in-law, Steve and Teresa King; step-daughter and husband, April and Steven Sharpe; grandchildren, Tyler and Ryan King and Preston, Jackson and Hudson Sharpe; several cousins, nieces and nephews. The family will receive friends from 5:00-7:00 p.m. at Berry Funeral Home on Chapman Highway on Tuesday, September 29, 2015, with a service to follow at 7:00 p.m. Family and friends will meet at Berry Funeral Home on Wednesday, September 30, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. to go in procession to Greenwood Cemetery for an 11:00 a.m. graveside service.
