| Notes |
- BIRTH: Violet was born on Glass Street in East Chattanooga, Tennessee. The attending physician was Dr Byrd. Her mother named her 'Violet' after her best friend.
NAME: Aunt Effie May Manning named her 'Toots'.
PHOBIA: Violet's fear of water stems from the stories she heard about her sister Thelma's drowning. This was reinforced by her mother's refusal to let her go near water or learn to swim.
PHOBIA: Violet has a fear of birds, in particular, the flapping of their wings. This fear originates from an incident in which Violet as a young girl was walking from the outhouse back to her mother's house on Porter Street and
EVENT: Violet was nine years old when she saw her uncle Caywood for the first and only time. Violet, her mother, her brother Gene, Caywood's son Richard and Richard's wife Alice (the couple lived in Florida) went to see Caywood in a prison hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. Her memory of the meeting is that Caywood was the tallest man she had ever seen.
