Re: Meaning of the name "Kizzeria"
Hmmm..the fact that their father was a minister makes me think that Kizzeria could be a diminutive of the biblical name Keziah (which sometimes sees the nickname "Kizzy"). In the Bible, Keziah wand Jemima are daughters of Job. Very interesting name.

Thank you very much. That makes a lot of sense. Her daughter, my great-grandmother, always said it was pronounced "Kiz-are-uh", and her nickname that she went by was Kizzy. I appreciate your help!
