Notes for John C. B. Fulks
His death certificate records John Fulks, age 53, born 1863 in Ky, died 18 June 1916 in Menifee Co., Ky, married, farmer, father Calvin Fulks, mother’s maiden name Vena McClelen, both born in Ky, cause of death Bright’s Disease, informant Mary Mynhier, Scranton, Ky, burial in Staton burial ground.
Notes for Mary E. Staton
Her death certificate records Mary Fulks, age 79 years 2 months 19 days, born 25 Nov 1865 in Menifee Co., died 14 Jan 1944 in Scranton, Menifee Co., Ky, widowed, father W.M. Staton, born in Menifee Co., Ky, mother’s maiden name Sally Ann Frazier, born in Penneyton Co., cause of death bilateral lobar pneumonia, informant Lena Parks, Dayton, Ohio, burial in Scranton, Ky.
She was listed in the 1870 census as age 8, in the 1880 census as age 18, and in the 1900 census as age 37 born July 1862, so the year of birth on the death certificate is very probably incorrect. I am entering it as Nov 1861 because that best fits the childhood census records, but it is possible that it was Nov 1862 and her age was being rounded up in those censuses.
