Louis Milton Polson and Susie Christine Polson Weir are tied as the sixth-oldest children.
Louis Milton Polson
It took almost a decade before Annie gave birth to another set of twins, those being Louis Milton Polson (July 7th, 1912 – November 21st, 1979) and Susie Christine Polson Weir (July 7th, 1912 – ?).
Louis was the family’s first boy, but he lived like the rest of his older sisters, growing up on the Polson family farm in rural Jones County before settling in Laurel, having not labored while living on the farm. Louis continued to live with his parents and siblings for the entire decade, and by 1930, he was the third oldest child and oldest son in the home. At this point in time, Louis supported the family as a cotton mill doffer. He received an education to the eighth grade level.
Sometime between 1935 and 1940, likely after the death of his father John Quincy, Louis and the rest of the family still living with Annie relocated to 325 14th Avenue in Laurel. By 1940, Louis was the oldest child still in the house the oldest working resident in the home – still as a cotton mill spinning doffer. By October 16th, 1940, Louis had moved into a separate home nearby his mother – 329 14th Avenue – and was unemployed at this point in time.
He seems to have never married and remained in Laurel for the rest of his life. He died in Laurel in the fall of 1979, sixty-seven years-old. He was interred at the Hickory Grove Cemetery in Laurel.

Susie Christine Polson Weir
Even less information exists on Susie. She grew up in the same manner as her older siblings and twin, having lived with the rest of the Polson family on the Jones County farm and having moved to Laurel in the early 1920s. She continued to live with her parents and siblings until at least 1930, when at the time she worked as a cotton mill spinner.
From then, it is known that she lived with her husband Alvin K Weir in Miami, Florida, at the time of Irma’s death in 1953. She had at least one child, daughter Marlyne Evelyn Weir. While her death is unknown, she would have to have died before Maude in 1988, who in her obituary does not list Susie as a surviving relative.
