We lived just West of the Indian Creek Church and Cem. when I was young, and I believe the Jefferie Place was down to hill just North of us, or else it was the house accross from the Indian Creek Church ? Will ask my Elderly father who will be 96 this month and still has a fairly good memory. Margaret (Lowe) Mathena P.S. Seems like the name Roberta rings a bell to being one of their names.

Hi Margaret! Didn't we just correspond last month? I was going to Scotland Co to look for Harris'? Anyhow, I would be curious to know what your dad says about the Jeffries. Don't know too much about them but learned a little on my trip. William Felix (known as Felix) Jeffries died suddenly in April 1895. His wife, Maggie (Margaret Ellen Harris) was left with three small children. Otis married a Blanche Seanch, John seems to have disappeared, Fred moved in with his aunt and uncle (Nancy and Dex Rounsavelle) and married Grace Duell, and Willie died in 1911. I found a probate document indicating Maggie died before September 1909 but that's it. Felix is buried in Edinburgh Cemetery but Maggie's not there (I looked). Oh yes, Roberta is a daughter of Fred Jeffries. That area around Indian Creek sure is pretty. Did a fair amount of driving around and really enjoyed it.

Ellen, I will ask dad about the Jefferies when I call him on Father's day tomorrow. Yes, that is a pretty area around Indian Creek. Dad owned land around the area for years. I often have dreams of the Rector Place that is just West of the Cem. Dad sold that first years ago and is for sale again, but they want like 800 an acre for it.
