70. Mary Allene BACON. Born on 25 Aug 1888 in Mississippi. Mary Allene died in Birmingham, AL, on 22 Feb 1971; she was 82.7 Buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Birmingham, AL.7
An undated note in the Exum files belonging to my family from Mr. Milton J. Brooks of Bessemer, AL states: “Mary Allene Cooper Scott Bell Evans Bacon” was her name. I do not know where all of that comes from.
On 21 Jun 1910 when Mary Allene was 21, she married Milton Jerome BROOKS. Born on 23 Aug 1888.7 Milton Jerome died in Birmingham, AL, on 10 Nov 1973; he was 85.7 Buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Birmingham, AL.7
The below was received from Barbara Exum Higgins in July 2005. “Their three children, Donald, Milton and Gladys are all buried at Elmwood Cemetery (I have seen their graves many times as a child) but in talking with someone at Elmwood recently he told me they did not have a record of their birth or death dates.  He only knew they were all moved there on the same date in 1927.  If I ever have an opportunity to go there I will see if birth and death dates are on their markers and I will share that info with you.  Elmwood Cemetery is 205-251-3107.  They are buried in Block 8.”
They had the following children:
71. Henry Holcomb BACON Jr. Born on 29 Jun 1890 in Mississippi. Henry Holcomb died on 24 Nov 1926; he was 36.
The 1900 census says he was born Mar 1891.
