Notes for Charles William Pettit
The William A. Pettit family bible contains the inscription "Charles Wm Pettit Was Born Oct the 21, 1861"
His death certificate records Charles W. Pettit, age 62 years 3 months 22 days, born 21 Oct 1862 in Grant Co., Ky, died 12 Feb 1930 in Bullettsville, Boone Co., Ky, widow, late wife Mary Bell Pettit, father Thos Jefferson Pettit, mother’s maiden name Amanda Callahan, both born Grant Co., Ky, cause of death influenza, informant Griffin Pettit, Burlington, Ky, burial in Hedge Cemetery, Grant Co., Ky.
The attribution of his father’s name as Thos Jefferson is rather odd, since that was his uncle’s name.
