His death certificate records Layfaette Fraley, age 21 years 4 months 15 days, born 6 Jan 1893 in Ky, died 17 May 1914 in Brickyard precinct, Carter Co., Ky, married, farmer, father Mark Fraley, mother’s maiden name Julia Nickells, both born in Ky, cause of death gun shot wound of abdomen, homicidal, informant John Binson, Olive Hill, Ky, burial in Olive Hill, Ky.

Since he was recorded in the 1900 census as age 9 born in 1890 (no month entered), and in the 1910 census as age 20, it is likely that the year of birth is incorrect.
