Ramona,
Thank you for getting back so with me soon.
My grandmother Mary Elizabeth Farmer (Evans) Shoupe. *Will Explain the many last names.
My GGGrandfarther I have been told was William C. Evans *m. Lavinia Delk. At some point my grandfarther's children changed there last name to Farmer? He was born around 1880's lived in & around Black Mountain,KY. He died young have been told he was killed in the coal mines around 1912 / 1916? Not knowing what mine this might have been?
I have been trying to find the reason they changed there name or if they really did. My family members are also trying to find the truth about the Evans & Farmer names, so far no one has found any thing on paper to confirm the changes.
The Fraley family you have would there be a Eli - Ely Fraley?
Worked for the railroad in & around KY? He was supposed to have farthered my grandfarther Adams from Cumberland. His mother was Mary Brock. She married an Adams & gave my grandfarther his last name? Would you have any inforamtion on this family?
Any info would be helpful.
Thank You
Kathy
