Ola Mae Pitcock was the fifth child of John Hale Pitcock and Sarah Alice Cosby. She married Claude Oscar Anthony 1 Sep 1908. They were married 54 years and raised 8 children in Panola County, Mississippi.
Mama Ola was a good woman. She was sweet to the core and loved with her whole heart. She enjoyed going to town on Saturdays and going to church on Sundays. She was a member and an organist at Liberty Hill Baptist Church. On Sunday mornings, Mama Ola could be seen leading her grandchildren to church. She gave them etiquette lessons along the way and showed them how to carry themselves properly.
Her husband sharecropped at the Chapman place, and she cared for Ms. Minnie Chapman. She was a wonderful cook. Two dishes that are still discussed at family gatherings are her creamed English peas with pearl onions, and her rice pudding. She was also a seamstress and quilter. It seemed Mama Ola could do almost anything... and do it well. She is still missed, almost 47 years after her passing.
