I am looking for information on the Thomas J. Fay family that lived in Knox from about
1900 - 1970. Thomas J. Fay died 28 Feb 1936. He owned and operated the Fay Hotel from 1907
until 1922. It later became the Home Hotel. His wife was Eolah E. Rice died 2 July 1927.
Both died and are buried in Knox.Both obit notices tell of 2 daughters that died before
them. # 1 was Jennie O. and # 2 was Maude Irene. Can not find any other information on
these. I know that the family still had relatives living in Knox until about 1970's.
There was a Ruth Fay, daughter of Thomas and a granddaughter, Helen (Taylor) Brugh. I do
not know when either one died or if still living. There was also a Lula (Fay) Taylor that
lived in Knox and also in Leiters Ford.
