The young and the restless
Pictured are my great-grandparents, Fred Lee Ervin and Georgia Anna Brittian. Married April 7, 1913, they lived on a farm in Connelly Springs. This picture was taken around 1915. Fred was 25 years old and Georgia was 18. Considering neither of them ever had a driver’s license or drove a car, it was quite a surprise to find this picture of them on this Civil War-era motorcycle. We are not sure what make or model the bike is. If anyone has any information regarding the motorcycle, we would be delighted to hear about it. Fred was born in 1890 and lived to be 69 years old. Georgia, on the other hand, was born in 1897 and passed away in 1998 at the age of 101. If she would have lived two more years until the year 2000 she would have lived in three different centuries. Imagine that! Jeanie
