Thank you for this information. I like Sarita remember your grandmother (Florence) very well. She visited our grandmother (Beulah) several times over the years that I remember.
Your information fits with something my mother told me about Beulah living with an aunt after her mother passed. In one of your responses to Sarita you wrote of Florence Lanier Short as an aunt that your grandmother Florence went to live with and I have been looking to see if Beulah had also live with this aunt. This now gives me another path to track with Aunt Savage. I have found Beulah and Clifton Carpenter in the 1920 census in Newport. I also have Beulah being born in Nashville, NC (Nash County). I have an account with ancestry.com with my family tree Reynolds-Smith that has what I have been working on for the last year, which includes what I have on Beulah Catlett. If you contact me at (derey@att.net) I can give you access to my work.
