Ida Bell Miller Lewallen (aka Morris)

This is a picture of Ida Bell Miller Lewallen (aka Morris). She was born in Scott County, VA, to Jacob H. B. Miller and Martha Jane Russell Miller, and the family later moved to Tennessee. Ida married Balaam Eugene Lewallen. They moved to WV around 1911 and then went by the name of Morris.

This picture was taken on June 6, 1938, six months before Ida died suddenly, probably of cerebrovascular accident, while tending to farm chores. Ida was known as a kind and gentle soul.
