(F, b 1843) Lewis L (M, 1845) Joseph B (M, 1849) Mount Etna (M b 1857) Irene Arlene (F, b 1853) Mary Iris (F, b 1867) Joseph B Laferney is my ancestor since his daughter, Mary Ellen Laferney (my great grandmother) married William Drewry in Prairie County (Des Arc), Arkansas. I also think that Stephen Decator Laferney had a brother in New Madrid named James Monroe Laferney, and he was married to Mary Eliza (unknown).
