I have Spencer marrying 2nd Polly Collins and here is the record from Gloria's website: Combs Spencer Collins Polly 31 May 1922 Married at Dema, Kentucky by Elijah Hale in the presence of Melvin Amburgey and Cassie Amburgey Attest: John Sturgill DC-County Court Clerk Bk 16 pg 49 Yet Polly wrote the obit and says he married Polly Engle. She should know her last name?? She was 19 when she married first according to the 1930 census which would match with this marriage so don't think she was an Engle who first married a Collins.

He lived alone with his children 10 years and then married Polly Engle. To them was born eleven children, 7 girls and 4 boys. Edgar, Washington, D. C; Oliver, Everett and Pearlie all of Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. Allen Budd and Mrs. Gilbert Edwards of Marshall, Va ; Carson, Ula Vale, Alpha Louise and Ortha Lida Combs all of Carr Creek, Ky. He was a good citizen, loved his neighbors and wa s loved and respected by all who knew him. He joined the Old Regular Baptist Church and was baptized at the Old Carr School house in 1947. He prayed most of the time while he was sick and one night he dreamed he was in the church house in the side next to the road and there was something in the other side trying to get to him to hang him some way and he was scared and tried to get away from Jr. He went to the door and it opened itself so he went out and there was a light shining from Heaven brighter than day, shining out the road that he could see to walk away from whatever was after him, so he got away from it through that light. He died the 16th and would have been 72, the 18th. I did. all I could for him and regret, that I couldn't do more. He left us to mourn his loss, though I believe our loss is Heavens gain. I have great hope that I will meet him in the glory world and am praying that our children will join us up there, where I believe my darling little daughter that preceded him in death is resting now. Written by a lonely wife, Polly Combs ~ Carr Creek, Ky. Here is note in my record for Cornilia. She is buried in the Carr Fork Memorial and I have a pic on her.

Here is something in my notes from Betty who was very close to the family. Polly was an Engle, daughter of Nathaniel Engle and Nervesta (Vesta) Hall. Nathan's parents were Frances (Frank) Engle and Mary (Polly) Adams. Vesta had two children by Nathan, Polly and Benjamin. Then Vesta married Clay Collins. The 1920 census was in error when it listed them as "Collins". Nathan and Vesta's son Benjamin was my husband's father.

He was a good citizen, loved his neighbors and wa s loved and respected by all who knew him. He joined the Old Regular Baptist Church and was baptized at the Old Carr School house in 1947. He prayed most of the time while he was sick and one night he dreamed he was in the church house in the side next to the road and there was something in the other side trying to get to him to hang him some way and he was scared and tried to get away from Jr. He went to the door and it opened itself so he went out and there was a light shining from Heaven brighter than day, shining out the road that he could see to walk away from whatever was after him, so he got away from it through that light. He died the 16th and would have been 72, the 18th. I did. all I could for him and regret, that I couldn't do more. He left us to mourn his loss, though I believe our loss is Heavens gain.

This would be easily solved if I could find a marriage record for Polly Collins to Nathan Engle but no such luck, so far. Will look at this again tomorrow and then do what JB did last time and get confused and give up.

Lynda, Madge is new to me. But, the census record certainly shows her as highly likely dau of Spencer. But maybe not. Here is Obit of Spencer: Combs, Spencer ~ With a sad and lonely heart I will try to write an obituary of my beloved husband, Spencer Combs, born January 18, 1880, in Knott County .He was the son of Andrew and Nancy Combs. He had 11 brothers, Sam, Watson, Cullen, Simeon, Riley, Melvin, Ira, Andrew, Mat, Alvin and Doctor. His father and mother and 8 brothers preceded him in death- He married Cordelia Amburgey, daughter of Hiram and Dicie Amburgey. To them was born three children, Carl Combs, and Mrs. Fred Gioza, both of Phoenix, Arizona, and Mrs. Clyde West, who preceded in him death. Cordelia died about 1912. He lived alone with his children 10 years and then married Polly Engle. To them was born eleven children, 7 girls and 4 boys. Edgar, Washington, D. C; Oliver, Everett and Pearlie all of Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. Allen Budd and Mrs. Gilbert Edwards of Marshall, Va ; Carson, Ula Vale, Alpha Louise and Ortha Lida Combs all of Carr Creek, Ky. He was a good citizen, loved his neighbors and was loved and respected by all who knew him. He joined the Old Regular Baptist Church and was baptized at the Old Carr School house in 1947. He prayed most of the time while he was sick and one night he dreamed he was in the church house in the side next to the road and there was something in the other side trying to get to him to hang him some way and he was scared and tried to get away from Jr. He went to the door and it opened itself so he went out and there was a light shining from Heaven brighter than day, shining out the road that he could see to walk away from whatever was after him, so he got away from it through that light. He died the 16th and would have been 72, the 18th. I did. all I could for him and regret, that I couldn't do more. He left us to mourn his loss, though I believe our loss is Heavens gain. I have great hope that I will meet him in the glory world and am praying that our children will join us up there, where I believe my darling little daughter that preceded him in death is resting now. Written by a lonely wife, Polly Combs ~ Carr Creek, Ky. Here is note in my record for Cornilia. She is buried in the Carr Fork Memorial and I have a pic on her.
