My great grandfather, William Obie Roberts always told this story of meeting my great grandmother Willie Mae Poore. Grandma had taken Miss Addie to church in the wagon and while they were there a storm had come up and a tree was blocking their path on the way home. Grandpa came up on them on horseback. He saw Grandma and he said "her black eyes were just a shinin'. He guided her horse and wagon around the tree. They were married on March 4, 1914 in a horse and buggy in Steubenville, KY.
