Lector Mills Nance was born in 1875 to Henry and Loiusa (Courick) Mills. She was married to Twimmon Nance abt. 1900, together they had seven children:
Ermie Nance
Nina Nance
Trula Nance McBee
Beulah Nance Atchley
Jessie Nance Gunter
Henry Nance
Daisy Nance Underwood

Lector was my great grandmother and I would love to tell stories of her, but by all accounts she was a reserved woman. She was hard working and kept the cleanest house around. She suffered in her life, losing her daughter, Nina, at age four to Scarlet Fever.

She was a Christian woman, solid in her faith. She and Twimmon helped to found the Nance's Grove Baptist Church in Jefferson Co, TN on land donated by her husband's uncle. This is where she is buried, beside Twimmon and near some of their children.

"Be Patient with life, despite it's cruelty, Often it seems careless of our pain, but just as often brings us hope again."
