This is a picture of Charlie Amos Jensen, a lifelong resident of the Lexington 
area of Lee County, taken circa 1930.  He was born July 3, 1884, the son of 
Peter Christian & Mary Jane (nee Bridges) Jensen.  He was the fourth of their 
five children.  Charlie was a born story-teller, and it is said he would pull 
up a chair on the old square in Lexington where a crowd would soon be gathered 
for some simple entertainment.  He also loved to dip his snuff, which he did 
until his death.  Charlie wed Carrie Bell Phears/Clemons on January 3, 1904, 
and they went on to have six children:  Myrtle Gertrude, Maudie Edith, Madie 
Bell, Hervie Clarence (Hub), Clara Lucille (Sit), and Charles Marvin (Pete).  
Charlie died in a Giddings nursing home April 16, 1976 at the age of 91.
