I have his spouse as Mary Russell and children, Nancy married Wes Childers, Louise married Robert Gross, Virginia married Lonnie Gross, Anna married Don Salyers, Ralph married Kimberly Adams, and Katherine married Clinton Combs. Don't have parents for Clinton. Do you have the spouses for the other childen of Nathan? Any Combs information you would have would be appreciated. I am willing to share any information that you wish to obtain. My wife 's ties are to Breathitt with the Russell, Stidham, Noble Neace, Miller McIntosh, Fugate, Smith and Harvey families.

Chester Combs that m. Mary Russell is the son of Oscar Combs and Nancy Turner. After the death of Nancy, Oscar m. my aunt, Martha Spencer. Oscar and Martha had no children. Chester was the youngest child of Oscar and Nancy. Some of/or all of the other children were Tom, Ed, Wise, Mary Ellis, Stella, John and Duck [Duck was a nickname-I do not know his given name]. As for as I know Chester and Ed are still living. I am not sure about Wise. Oscar had brothers Pearl, Mace, Silas and a sister Joanna. Judy

I don't have a dc or obit for him. Mary Russell comes from a Russell Family book by Victor Jones, a person that was a teacher in Breathitt Co for may years.
