His death certificate (Vol. 45, #22191) states Peter Quesenberry, age 76, farmer, born in Virginia (birthdate field blank), died 9 July 1919 in Rowan Co., father Andrew Quesenberry, mother’s maiden name Abigail Banks, both born in Virginia, cause of death cerebral thrombosis, informant field blank, burial in Lee Cemetery, Morehead.

Names of Peter’s wives and the birth and death dates for Ida Bell and Lillian are from a query by Janet Payne Randall of 847 West Gate Drive, Eureka, CA 95501, published in Cox-Phillips Newsletter, Vol. 5, No. 2, p. 50. She also has the note "Possibly a son also from this marriage." According to her, Peter moved to Morehead in 1904.

1900 census of Floyd Co., Virginia, Indian Valley township, enumerated 7 June, lists on p. 5B as family #83/85:
Quesenbery, Peter, 54, divorced, b. Apr 1845, farmer; Fulture, Martha A., servant, 30, b. Apr 1870, single, mother of 3 children, 1 living; Quesenbery, Lillie R., dau, 3, b. June 1896. All born Va/Va/Va.

1910 census of Rowan Co., Ky, Morehead precinct, p. 186B-187A, enumerated 4 May, lists as family #222/224:
Quesinberry, Peter, 65, 2nd marriage, married 5 years, Va Va Va; Charlotte, wife, 35, 1st marriage, mother of 4 children, all living, Ky Ky Ky; Lillie, dau, 13, Va Va Va; Dickson, Julia D., dau, 12, Ky Ky Ky; Dickson, Minnie, dau, 7, Ky Ky Ky; Quesinberry, Walter, son, 3, Va Va Va; George W., son, 2/12, Ky Va Ky.

Although it is listed as a first marriage for Charlotte, it was really her second (and possibly Peter’s third, although it is uncertain whether he was married to the mother of Lillian and Ida.)

Janet Payne Randall, a granddaughter of Ida Bell Quesenberry and Claude Payne, wrote that Lillie and Ida Bell’s mother was named Alice Williams and that she was born in Mt. Airy, North Carolina.

It seems very probable, though, that Lillie and Ida were daughters of the Martha A. Fulture who was living with Peter and Lillie in the 1900 census, listed as the single mother of three children, one living. If she had one child living, that child was very likely to be living with her. (The “A” could stand for Martha Alice.)

However, I cannot find any Fulture family in Virginia or North Carolina in the entire state (using the census search on Ancestry.com)! There was one single black male Daniel Fulture in Jones Co., North Carolina, b. ca 1862. So it is likely that the surname was incorrect. It is legible and distinct, though. So it wasn’t misread, but it may have been misheard, perhaps from Fletcher or Folger or Vulture or something like that. I also looked for an Alice Williams in the 1870 and 1880 censuses just in case, and found no good matches for that name either.
