I could not find Andrew or Andy Sparks in either the Kentucky Death index or the Social Security Death index. He probably did not have a SSN, and perhaps either died outside KY, or was misindexed.

Nor could I find a marriage record for Andy Sparks & Nancy. I checked 1945-1956 for Rowan, Elliott and Morgan Co. I should check Bath Co. If the family story is true that she was in her 90's at her fourth wedding, then the date would probably be 1954 or 1955.

After Jesse's death, Nancy Jane married three more times, first to Rev. W. Jerry Fletcher, then to Granville Mays, and finally to Andrew Sparks, at age 90. She is pictured twice in the 1956 Centennial Edition of the Morehead News, identified as Nancy Jane Sparks, age 91, with husband Andrew Sparks, 81.

Her death certificate (Vol. 41, #20362) lists Nancy Sparks, d. 2 Sep 1959, age 94, in Rowan Co. Her marital status is given as married, but the form no longer has a space for name of spouse. Her birthdate is given as 14 Sept 1864, her father's name as Presley Petitt, mother Mary Riddle, informant Ted Cornette (son). Cause of death is hepatic hemorrhage. Burial in Williams Cemetery.
