I am trying to verify the lines preceeding my grandfather Era Wilson Handley born 5/24/1887. Family stories have it that Era's father was Ewell Wilson Handley, his grandfather was Ewell McK )I think this is McKinley) Handley and his great grandfather was Logan.I find very little on Era's father Ewell Wilson who was born between 1858 and 1862. Ewell Wison Handley was married to Sarah Amanda Rous who died of TB in 2/1888. Ewell Wilson was said to have 2 other children besides my granfather, both born before him by the names of Robert and Edna Mary. When my grandfather's mother died he was 1 year old and supposedly raised by his grandparents Ewell Mckinley Handley and Mary E. Hall. They had a homestead in Durbin KY.I have found that Ewell Wilson was indeed Ewell McKinley;s son, and I know there are other children of Ewell McKinley but I haven't been able to find all of their names listed together as his children. It seems that Ewell Wilson's name is excluded from some of these records and I can never find anything on the children of Ewell Wilson besides my grandfather.I have seen a marriage record of Ewell Wilson and Jennie Abrams after 1888, I am assuming this is his second wife and not the mother of my grandfather. This Handley line had traveled from VA to Ohio and back to KY if I have the stories straight.Era eventually ended up in Ashland KY and settled after that in Attella and Gadsden AL. Anyone with any info on Ewell McKinley Handley, his wife Mary Elida Hall and Ewell Wilson Handley please contact me at sharonash@excite.com Thanks _______________________________________________________ Say Bye to Slow Internet! http://www.home.com/xinbox/signup.html
