 When Dougie Bailey(1912-1987), author of DEVIL MAKE A THIRD, married Louie Herzberg (1909-2000) in 1937, he married into two prominent Gadsden and Tuscaloosa families. His new wife's father was Judge L.L. Herzberg(1868-1945)  who was a son of one of Gadsden's pioneer merchants. Louie Herzberg Bailey's mother, Emma Friedman Herzberg (1869-1934) was raised in Tuscaloosa and her brother, Tuscaloosa's Sam Friedman (1871-1952) was married to Annie Laurie Longshore Friedman (1891-1966). Dougie took his wife aunt Annie Laurie's maiden name and used it as the DEVIL MAKE A THIRD fictional  name of AMOS LONGSHORE, Aven banker, and his daughter Ivy who was Buck Bannon's first wife.
