Elizabeth: B: April 10, 1870 2. Martha E. - lived in Kansas City, MO in 1927 and married a Fugate 3. William Nelson: B: 1872 I am not quite sure this is the same one. D: 1928 Wife: Amanda - B: 1881 D: 1922 Child: Emory Loyd - B: May 28, 1903 D: Jan 6, 1913 I also show him married a second time to Elena Parks on Jan 4, 1923 William, Amanda and Emory are buried close to the Mays home place 4. John H.: Born: March 30, 1874, was living in Bluefield, W. Va in 1927 5. Mary Virginia (Mollie) B: Dec 1, 1875 D: April 22, 1975 M: William Madison Stapleton on Aug 7, 1900 Children: 1.Oakley Stapleton- B: 1902 Died: Feb 24, 1996 2.Roy F.

Margaret - B: 1911 3. Wesley Frank - B: 1922 4. Gladys - B: 1917 5. Ruth - B: 1913 I show 2 children buried at the Mays Cemetery as follows: Emma V - Born & Died Feb 8, 1915 and Ralph Lee - no dates on the headstone, just son of M.L. and R. V. Mays 7. Liddia Margaret - Daughter of J. W. & Tabitha Mays - died at age 3 years. Buried at Mays Cemetery. Father: James K. Mays, Jr Mother: Mary (Polly) James was born in 1820, in North Carolina I have Polly born in 1825 in Tennessee and Died in 1908 There is a gravestone for a Polly Mays in the Mays Cemetery that just states Polly Mays, Wife of James Mays, 72 years. I don't know if this is the same or not, age is not in agreement. The father of James K. Mays, Jr. is James Mays Born 1804 This is all the information I have on him. He was probably James Mays, Sr. and since James K. Mays Jr. was born in North Carolina I presume he was from there also and then moved to Russell County, VA. That is as far back as I have on this side on the family. Jeff Jessee did email me and when he arrives back in Florida and he contact me with more info. Thanks so much for your help.
