Luther Porter Long's parents were William and Fannie Long (that's all the information on them that I have so far). He was in the Civil War. I do have some more information on him and will send it. I think I also have a picture of them. I will have to look at home. I do know on the tombstone (I have a picture of that also), the name Creecy is spelled with only 1 e. I would like to see the picture you have if you could email it to me. I think Nancy was born in Edmondson County KY. My aunt has the obituary, but it didn't say much else that would be helpful. I will look over the information I have a home. I have a copy of the Pension payment to Nancy on behalf of Luther. I will email it this evening after I get home from work if you would like me to. I'm so excited to find a "cousin". Hopefully we can help each other.
