    1. The two Simon Felty families
    2. lowe
    3. I've been trying to sort out the two Simon Felty families living in Greenup Co. KY. Does anyone know if/ how these two families are related? I found Simon with wife, Elizabeth Music, in the 1860 (E. Little Sandy), 1880 (Hunnewell), and 1900 (Hunnewell) Greenup Co. KY Census, but cannot locate the family in 1870? I found Simon with wife, Malinda Music, listed twice in 1870, (once in Oldtown and once in Lynn), but cannot locate them in 1860? In 1880 this Simon is with second wife, Nancy (Thompson) living in Oldtown. He and Malinda are listed among those buried in the Corn Adkins Cemetery in Little Leatherwood. Both of these Simon Felty households have a son, Jefferson D. Felty. The Jefferson D. Felty who married Matilda Lowder lists his date of birth in the 1900 Census as September 1862 and age as 37. The Jefferson D. Felty with wife Ida lists his date of birth in the 1900 Census as January 1863 and age as 37. Does anyone have a record which indicates which Jefferson was the son of Elizabeth and which Jefferson was the son of Malinda? (Jefferson and Matilda are also listed among those buried in the Corn Adkins Cemetery in Little Leatherwood). In 1900, the Jefferson D. Felty with wife Matilda, has living in his household a sister, Catherine Felty, age 13, born February 1887. IF this Jefferson is the son of Malinda, then Catherine would be a daughter of Nancy Thompson. If this Jefferson is the son of Elizabeth, then I don't know who Catherine is!!! Can anyone help??
