 Includes NotesNotes for Jessie Lee Coleman:
My dad, John Melton Coleman, after leaving New Orleans, went back to Mississippi A & M. He had a small office with his name on the door. He apparently had a teaching fellowship as he had began working on a Master's Degree. My mother, Jessie Lee Coleman, was a 1st grade teacher in Mississippi and went to A & M to obtain some college credits. Since her father's name was John McCages Coleman, she wanted to get a look at this John M. Coleman. She did, they fell in love and were married on December 25, 1920 in Memphis, Shelby County, Tennessee. There is a clipping reporting the wedding.

My mother was next to the oldest of 10 children. She had 2 brothers and 7 sisters. One brother, John Hugh Coleman, died at 2 months of age from whopping cough. One sister, Mariam Knight Coleman, died of typhoid fever at age 14.
