AI Notes
An album page with six black-and-white photographs arranged in three rows. The upper row shows a framed-pictures still-life and a seated woman in a living room; the middle row shows two baby snapshots; the lower row shows a woman holding a baby and a family group in front of a house. Each cluster is captioned in blue ink. The baby’s middle name reads ‘Walker’, making him Pickens Walker Corbell; the family surname is ‘Corbell’ throughout this page (the later obituary used the ‘Corbett’ spelling). The Corbells are Emma Dee Walker (the compiler’s daughter) + Dr. Robert Corbell Jr.; the lower-right family group shows them with their elder child Ilu and (held by mother) baby Pucky.
the album captions consistently spell the surname “Corbell” — this matches the compiler’s older album captions (the 1953 obituary headline used “Corbett”; the family used both spellings). The baby’s middle name reads “Walker”, honoring his maternal grandfather J. P. “Pickens” Walker — the compiler’s husband.
