Moultrie M. Sessions


Moultrie M. Sessions was a lawyer, real estate developer, and president of the Sessions Loan and Trust in Marietta, GA.  He lived in Marietta, Georgia in what is now called The Archibald Howell Home. He is buried in the Marietta City Cemetery


I haven't been able to find anything about this gentleman.  His name is E. H. Clay.  The two pictures are attached in the clipping but my grandmother didn't keep the article.  He could be associated with the Sessions Savings and Loan.

And finally a photo without a name.  I have no clue other than the thought that he is either a businessman or politician from the Atlanta area.  Any idea?
