CHILDREN

 
 
Alton and Naomi's daughter, Linda Whitley, was told by her parents that Viola Eason Weeks helped name her (Linda).  Linda used to help look after Carolyn and Sidney Weeks since she was a bit older.  Linda also recounted how much she loved going with Viola to White Lake, NC.
 
Carolyn Weeks Loftin (daughter of Albert Sidney Weeks & Viola Eason) met with her cousins Linda and JoAnn (daughters of Alton Brooks Whitley and Naomi Eason) on Saturday, 10 May 2014.  It had been 15 years since they had last seen each other - at the death of Carolyn's mother, Viola, in 1999.
