Hi -
That is a great story! Unless it made the newspaper (I'm unfortunately not finding it online), it would be very difficult to verify!. You might check the archives of the local newspaper of where they lived at that time!.!.!.

Is it possible this could be her!? She would have been about 46 when Recell was born:

Ancestry!.com has 2 death records for Cornelia Johnson in SC:
Name: Cornelia Johnson
Birth: 1903
Death: 18 May 1948 - Allendale, South Carolina
and
Name: Cornelia Johnson
Birth: abt 1871
Death: 11 Feb 1952 - Chester

If she died in the 1950's, we should definitely be able to find a death record, as those were required in most states in the early 1900's!.

This line is a POSSIBILITY and assumes I have the right family in 1930!. You didn't give a city or county in South Carolina, so I only had names to work with, and names are misspelled and misindexed all the time!. If this does fit with OTHER INFORMATION you have, you can see the 1880 census online without paying at Ancestry!.com

There are several other Rose families living nearby Titus Rose on the censuses!. If this is the correct family for Cornelia, you'll need to go back and collect the information on the other Rose families!.
