Peter was listed in a 1900 Greenup County, Census as a widowed Son In Law. ............................................................................ ......................................... UNANSWERED QUESTIONS Was Milford Penix wife Rebecca Jane Cooper related to Tom and William Cooper? My family swears that Mary Dicey Blevins was Myrtle M. Penix cousin where does her mother Elizabeth Meadows come from? Mary D. Blevins was born in 1896, the 1900 Census has her husband Peter listed as a widowed son in law, did she die in childbirth? Why was Peter Blevins listed as a Son in Law to Gilbert Penix when his wife's last name was Meadows? The family story goes that Mary D. Blevins parents died when she was very young and her and her brother Roby were raised by a Meadows family, Which one? Any help with any of this will be greatly appreciated, any suggestions on where to look, I have hit a big "wall" so any help would be great. Thank you, Ed Cooper
