States Rights Gregory (31 December 1860-19 March 1932), son of Andrew Jackson and Levicia Wilkes Gregory, married Annie Crump (18 May 186 14 February 1925). To this union were born: Andrew Thompson; Annie Mae; and Eula Bell.

The following is related by Sue Lee Gregory McMullin, daughter of Andrew Thompson Gregory.

"The family of States Rights Gregory lived on the land left him by his father until they moved to Okolona. Emily, who lived with them and did the cooking, etc., moved to town with them. States was very much loved by his grand-children. He used to eat at their home quite a lot and frequently stayed at Tom's grocery store."

Andrew Thompson (Tom) Gregory (16 December 1888-15 October 1934) of Okolona, Mississippi married Sue Lee Cox (24 July 1891-25 January 1975) on 2 January 1915 in Okolona, Mississippi. She was the daughter of Abner Clark and Amanda Mayfield Cox. Sue Lee, a graduate of Grenada College, Mississippi, with both BM and BL degrees, taught elementary school and music. She was singing in the choir at the First Methodist Church where Tom was an usher when they got acquainted. Hortense Gregory Smith related that she and Tom lived only one mile apart as children, and that he was in high school when he moved to town with his parents and two sisters. Sue Lee had moved to Okolona when she was nine years old from Sycamore (now a part of the Natchez Trace).

Tom was already established in the grocery business ("Staple & Fancy Groceries" was his slogan) at the time of their marriage. In those days, stores had to be open in time to deliver bacon and eggs for breakfast, and paying cash was unheard of. His daughter, Clementine, remembers helping her father post accounts after hours. She remembers her mother saying that, when she started dating Tom, her father said, "Yes, I remember States Rights Gregory because he was the only young man my age who wore silk shirts."

Tom and Sue Lee had three daughters: Manette Countess; Annie Clementine; and Sue Lee.

The following account by Clementine is somewhat typical of the World War II era:
"On Sunday noon, August 6, 1944, Manette and Clementine had their first children: An hour after Manette's son, Thomas Ennis Turner, born; Clementine had a son, Fred Edward Beemon, Jr. They were at the home of their mother, Sue Lee Gregory, in Okolona. Dr. DeVan Hansel was their doctor. A Cousin, Jack Gregory, had brought the portable delivery table to the house. Manette's husband arrived an hour before their son was born. He was on his last leave before being sent to Germany the following week, where he was in the Battle of the Bulge. Clementine's husband had been on duty in New Guinea in the South Pacific for eight months and did not see his son until he was sixteen months old. Sue Lee Gregory was presented with two more grandsons three years later on the same weekend. Only that time, the new mothers were Manette, who had her second son, Ronald Gregory Turner, on January 9, 1948; and Sue, who had her first child, William David McMullin, Jr., on January 11, 1948."
