This is my grandmother Emma May. She was born July 15th 1922 as she passed away may 22nd 2005. She was born and raised in Greenville, North Carolina. She was a member of Mount Calvary Freewill Baptist Church in Greenville. This picture may have been related her service as a member of Mt. Calvary. She and her husband Richard May had 7 children and over 25 grandchildren. I am one of her youngest grandchildren. This picture means so much to my family thank you very much.
