Douglas: Micaelas' grandfather was called Ira Douglas Odgers, Sam's father is Douglas Neil Toler Murray and his grandfather was Thomas Prain Douglas Murray.

Lula: Micaelas' great-grandmother was Tallie Lula Davis (called Lula). She lived on a farm in Mississippi and had 12 children, including triplets...
