Notes for Stella Opal Mathews
The Kentucky birth index lists Stella Mathews, born 27 Dec 1915 in Breathitt Co. (a misindexing of Rowan Co.
11), mother’s maiden name Sarah Fraley. It is a delayed certificate, filed in 1943. The birth index also lists Opal Mathews, born 5 Jan 1916 in Breathitt Co., mother’s maiden name Sarah Fraley, and that one is not a delayed certificate. Since a mother cannot have two children born 8 days apart, the second certificate was probably filed either as a correction to the first, or because the original could not be located due to the name change.
