1930s Below is a cute photo of 'Flea' and Doris Osborne Akers in southwest Virginia. So formal in those days with Flea wearing a tie and Doris in high heels and yet curled up on the grass in front of a cabin. Doris is my mother and Aunt Louise's first cousin by Bascomb Osborne. Flea and Doris are the parents of Phyllis and David Akers. Phyllis has been sharing photos and information also with me on our family.
