I am assuming that the details you posted for L.A. Hooton & Bishie B. Pepper related to their marriage, if that is the case, then this could well be Luther and his family, the event date of 13 Feb 1897 for marriage to Bishie B. Pepper would make him about 35 at that time.

James, do forgive me for going off topic - but your research interests caught my eye. Are you saying that James Patrick Clusker's wife Mary Ellen had the same surname (Bryant) as his mother Mary?

Alabama, Deaths and Burials Index, 1881-1974

Name: James P Clusker
Birth Date: 1 Mar 1890
Birth Place: Scotland
Death Date: 16 Mar 1948
Death Place: Birmingham, Jefferson, Alabama
Burial Date: 19 Mar 1948
Cemetery Name: Elmwood
Death Age: 58

Residence: Birmingham, Jefferson, Alabama
Father Name: James P Clusker
Father Birth Place: Scotland
Mother Name: Mary Bryant
Mother Birth Place: Illinois
Spouse Name: Mary Ellen Clusker
FHL Film Number: 1908827

EDIT: I see that she was as per daughter's marriage record - will dig around.

hanks MarieCeleste, I think that info from Alabama, Deaths and Burials Index, 1881-1974 has been wrongly transcribed.

I have James Patrick Clusker's mother as a Mary McDade b1857 she was married to James Clusker b1856.
