Suzanne,
thank you so very much for the information on Luther Deaton. I actually
didn't even know that my G Aunt Martha (Muncy) Deaton had a son named Luther.
Thank you for the added information, I'm sure it will certainly help in my
search for more of Martha's children....& my cousins.
I guess that my next search should be for an Obituary on Martha & Luther. You
wouldn't happen to know the name of the local paper in Salem would you?
Another subscriber to this mailing list was so kind as to send me a listing
of Martha (Muncy) Deaton's death from a Washington County index book. It
listed her residence on March 29 1965 when she passed away as being
Campbellsburg. Do you know if that is near Salem? I guess I also would have
to throw out the question of does anyone know what the name of the newspaper
in Campbellsburg in 1965 was? I would really love to have an Obituary on
Martha, as to aide me a bit more in my search for her relatives & mine.
Thanks,
John

I don't believe I have the cemetery records book that covers Pekin. You can

I'm sure they can help you. Good luck!
