Jerri, In 1930, Henderson Co., Ky., Croydon Dist. 22, I found a Webb R. Gentry and wife, Fie D. Gentry who had a daughter age 19 named Dollie. #15/15 Webb R. Gentry, 41, KyKyky, farmer Fie D., wife, 38, KyKyky Dollie, dau, 19, KyKyky Haywood, son, 17, Maggie Bell, dau, 14, Normi, dau, 08 I can't say that this is the Dollie Gentry you are looking for, but she' s the only one in Henderson Co. You'd probably need to find some marriage records to see if there is a connection between your family and the Gentrys.

Can anyone please help me with the identification of a Dollie Gentry? Many years ago, she wrote a letter to my Mother, Sarah Annie (Mayville) Norman, d/o Earl MAYVILLE and Cynthia Belle VARVEL. The Mayville's and Varvel's were from henderson and Union Counties, KY, late 1800's/early 1900's. Earl and Cynthia married in Ky on 25 Feb 1901. This Dollie Gentry is related in some way to my Mother, and her Mother, Cynthia Belle (Varvel) Mayville. There's a Sam Gentry in the family, too. Jerri

I would like to tell everyone that from the bible of Lina Mayse Keesee, any name spelled Mayes should be changed to Mayse. It was a simple typing error. Thanks, Lorrie Smith, Dotson, Heckman, Barga, Brussell http://www.rootsweb.com/~kypike/photos17.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~kypike/photos18.htm Fax number 775-855-6562

This information was taken from the family bible of Lina Mayes Keesee I wanted to share with everyone and also see if they can figure out the relationships of these people to the Keesee/Smith Family. This information came to me by way of a photo copy sent to me from James Scott. It was evidently sent to him by either James Walter Keesee son of Lina or one of his daughters. I would like to contact that person, if possible. I hope folks appreciate Lina as much as I have for filling out this information in such detail. MEMORAND I M.E. MAYES Dc. JAN 7, 1929 W.M.

Hi Everyone! I wish you all a Merry Christmas and hope you get everything on your list!! http://www.jacquielawson.com/viewcard.asp?pv=XS01EN Norma from - Middletown, Ohio Family Page: http://www.angelfire.com/oh/myfamilygenes Gentry Records Page: http://members.tripod.com/~nanny_4/index.html *TEMPORARY PERRY COUNTY KY CENSUS PAGE* http://members.tripod.com/~nanny_4/Census.html

Hi, Merry Christmas! I was wondering if anyone had in their information a Richard Keesee born June 15, 1892 died?son of James Aaron Keesee and Melvina Maynard, married to a Susan or Susanah Carolina Mayes born August 20, 1894 died? She was nicked named "Lina". She was said to of been born in Cherokee North Carolina and was the Daughter of Walter or William Mayes and possibly Betty Gentry. My information is sketchy. In the 1920 Pike county Kentucky census Lina is listed as living with her husband, and children. Her father must have lived close by and remarried shortly after the death of his first wife. This information comes from a family story. I am thinking that Elisabeth or Betty Gentry would have died after 1916, but can't be for sure. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Any information that comes close would be appreciated. I know for a fact the last name is Mayes but am unclear about the Gentry part.. This information effects two sides of the family.
