Life

Lucy Ellen Blair was born at Goodwater, Coosa County, Alabama, on 6 April 1870, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no source for the date.1 The federal census of 1880 lists Lucy E. Blair in the household (the people living together at one address, as the census-taker recorded them) of John Blair, which the tree places at Goodwater.2

On 23 December 1890 she married C. W. Webb, Charles William Webb, a son of Charles David Webb and Clarrissa Jane Carlisle, in Coosa County.3 The tree names seven children, born between 1892 and 1911: Clara Falby, Linnie Blair, George W., Ina Irene, Mary Lou, John Leroy and Harlen.4 An Alabama birth record of 3 July 1911, indexed under "Child Webb", names her as the mother, Lucy Ellen Blair.5 The censuses of 1900 and 1910 list her as Lucy E. Webb in her husband's household, in Shelby County in 1900 and in Tallapoosa County in 1910.6 In August 1912, when her husband was kept away by illness, she represented him at the Webb family reunion near Kellyton with four of their children, named in the report as Linnie, Ira, Mary Sue and Harlan.7

By 1920 the family was in Georgia, where the census found "Lucey" Webb in her husband's household in Militia District 1040, Crisp County.8 She died in Wilcox County, Georgia, on 23 January 1923, and was buried in Morningside Cemetery at Rochelle; Find a Grave indexes her memorial as Lucy Ellen Blair Webb.9 She is named as the mother, Lucy Blair, in the Alabama death record of her son Harlan in 1933, and, as "Lucy Elen Blarr", in that of her daughter Clara Posey in 1973.10
