In this photograph, ca. 1920, Mr. William J. Wilkerson and his family are 
featured with his Father-In-Law, Mr. Isham Lamb and his wife Katherine 
Fields.  It is not exactly clear as to which house they are at, but I believe 
it to be the house of Mr. and Mrs. Isham Lamb.  I have another photograph of 
the same group of people wearing the exact same clothes in front of a larger 
house.  I believe that house is owned by William J. Wilkerson as he has a 
large family.  That house was located about 1/4 of the way from Lumberton 
toward Fairmont on HWY 41.  I would assume the Lambs may have lived very 
close, if not on the same property.
 
William J. Wilkerson  (Mr. Bill) was the son of Malcom and  (first wife) 
Crissie J. Prevatte Wilkerson of Lumberton, NC.  He and his family, from what 
I have learned, farmed a large track of land in the area.  The Lambs are 
buried in the Prevatte Cemetery and the majority of the Wilkersons are buried 
in Meadowbrook Cemetery.  Judging by the elaborate grave makers, Mr. Wilkerson 
and his family must have been finacially secure.  Their obituaries are posted 
elsewhere on this website.
