18 July 1892: W.V. Love to Lula Louvenia Jackson



This is a page from my Great-Grandmother Lula's autograph book she kept as a girl.

Dated 18 Jul 1892 at Gabriel Mills, Williamson Co., TX, it is the autograph of her cousin, W. V. Love:

Miss Lula,

friendship is a Sacred Word/ engrave it on thy heart/ it Was in friendship that We/ met in friendship let us part.

Your Cousin, W. V. Love

This young man was very probably William Volney Love (b. 1868), who was the son of Louisa Jane (Coleman) Love, the sister of Lula's paternal grandmother, Cornelia Gilbert (Coleman) Jackson.
