Thanks Stephen! Thats exactly the one I'm talking about. Do you have Elizabeth's parents? I have always thought she was a Clemons, daughter of Francis. I also noted that you put William in front of his name on an earlier post. Do you have anymore on that?

Yes, Gary, For years she was listed as Elizabeth Clemons Whitaker, but only recently did we learn that she was William Francis Clemons' grand daughter as she is the eldest daughter of Benjamin and Nancy Jane (Clemons) Smith. (See also two Perry County deeds for Francis Clemons, Ben Smith & Rhoda Smith Breathitt County Deed, and Death Certificate for her son, Anderson Whitaker in 1923). William Johnson Whitaker, an interesting character in his own right, always signed his name on countless deeds and lawsuits as W. J. Whitaker and in a few place listed his name at William J. Whitaker, but he was always called "Jonce." Now his death date is another point of debate- stone says 1905 but he is on court records in 1910. I have worked for years on the Clemons, Smith, and Whitaker lines. Thanks, Stephen D. Bowling

Hi Pat, So sorry that we are going to miss the reunion this year. We have another family reunion in Arkansas that same weekend and since it is only every 3 years, we will be attending that one. Tell everyone hi and will see them next year.
