Sy Scholfield quotes Richard Bak's book, "Joe Louis: The Great Black Hope" (Da Capo Press, 1998), p. 6: "Her seventh and most famous offspring, Joseph Louis Barrow, came along on May 13, 1914. About eight o'clock that morning, while the rest of the family worked putting in that season's seed, an elderly midwife named Susan Radford helped Lillie deliver the eleven-pound baby in the front bedroom. He was named for his father's brother-in-law, Joe Louis Nichols. His birthplace, a ramshackle dwelling, still stands on Bell Chapel Road, about a mile off Route 50. LaFayette, the nearest town and the Chambers County seat is about six miles to the southeast."
