He is a lay reader at Chesapeake Avenue United Methodist Church and heads the Society of St. Stephen there. This small group has provided 27,000 meals per year for the past two years to poor people within the congregation's ZIP code. "

The following extract from an article appearing in The Virginian Pilot; 8/22/1999, appears to be about his son:

"When optometrist Dr. George Pegram III wanted to lend a hand to local schools, he decided to do something that could involve the whole community. The result: All proceeds of eye examinations during the week of Sept. 13-17 will be donated to various local schools."

824. Matilda Pegram 1, 2 (George R. , Alfred L. , William , John , William , George ) was born 3 in Aug 1889 in Harnett Co., North Carolina. She died on 14 Feb 1930.

Lennie and Matilda were married at the home of Thomas Dean: Cross Panther at Buckhorn, by minster J. A. Champion. Witnesses were Drury H. Partin; John W. Baker and Eddie Franklin Baker.

Her birth date as shown on the 1900 Census is May 1881 rather than 1889 as shown in other family records. However, the 1920 census shows her age as 35 which would mean she was born in 1885.

In 1920 she and her daughter are found living with her parents.

Matilda married Len E. Baker 1 son of Len Baker and Mary Griffin on 29 Jan 1910 in Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co., North Carolina. Len was born in Sep 1888 in Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co., North Carolina. He died before 1920 in Fuquay Springs, Harnett Co., North Carolina.

They had the following children:

  2975 F i Alene Baker was born on 11 Mar 1915 in Harnett Co., North Carolina.

In 1900 he is found living next to his mother who is now a widow living with her 4 younger children. The census shows that David and Mary have been married for 3 years. They have 1 child.

His son, Luther V. Pegram was the informant for his death certificate.

In 1910, all three children were living with their grandmother.

David married 2 Mary (Mollie) Baker 1 daughter of Henry Baker and Mary Griffin on 4 Jul 1896 in Harnett Co., North Carolina. Mary was born 3 in Jul 1878 in Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co., North Carolina. She died after 1908.

She is shown as Mollie on the 1900 census.

They had the following children:

2976 F i Margie Francis Pegram was born on 22 Feb 1898. She died on 18 Nov 1968.
  2977 M ii Milton Franklin Pegram 1 was born 2 on 28 Oct 1899 in Harnett Co., North Carolina. He died 3 on 23 May 1979 in Harnett Co., North Carolina.

Although his death certificate shows his date of birth as 1899, it is possible that this is wrong since he is not shown on the 1900 census of Harnett Co. It seem possible that is birth date is actually 1900, being born after the date of the census.
        Milton married 2 Ada Frances Tutor 1 daughter of William Randall Tutor and Cornelia Frances Baker on 24 Apr 1926 in Lillington, Harnett Co., North Carolina. Ada was born on 11 Jun 1897. She died on 29 Apr 1974.

Found among Pegram family papers in the Special Collections Library of Duke University was a photocopy of the obituary of Flora Gilbert. The obituary was undated but read as follows:

"Fuquay Springs, June 22 - Mrs. Flora Gilbert, 70, of Route 1, Fuquay Springs, died in a Raleigh hospital yesterday following an illness of several years. Surviving are five sons, Hardy Gilbert of Knightdale, Earl Gilbert of Raleigh, Ralph Gilbert of Angier and Ozzie and Howard Gilbert, both of Route 4, Raleigh; two brothers, J. W.

Funeral services were held this afternoon from Baptist Grive Church, and interment was in the church cemetery."

The year of death is based on her age given her obituary which is not dated as to the year.

Flora married 1, 2 James David Gilbert son of William Gilbert and Margaret (May) Johnson on 14 Aug 1901 in Harnett Co., North Carolina. James was born 3, 4, 5 about 1859 in North Carolina. He died 6 on 7 Jul 1949 in Harnett Co., North Carolina.
