I am in need of some help from the researchers on the above names. I have
an Amanda Clements b. 2 Oct 1880 who married Uriah Patrick O'Brien 23 Nov
1897. I read everywhere she was the daughter of Basil Clements and Minerva
Queen. After Uriah died she married a Padgett her obit says Waltine
Padgett.
I have a copy of St. Joseph Catholic Church at Bamble record that says she
was baptized as an adult 18 June, 1899. On the side someone has written in
small writing that she married ? looks like J N Padgett 26 Dec 1959 at Holy
Rosary Church, Indianapolis.
I have an obit for James T. Queen died 13 Dec 1934 that says his sister was
Mrs. Walstine Padgett which would mean her maiden name was Queen.
I also believe Basil Clements died about 1875, which would be 5 years before
Amanda was born. Was possibly Amanda born out of wedlock to Minerva and she
listed her father as Basil? Help.
