Notes for Maude Lee Benson
Her death certificate records Maude Lee Pergram, age 65 years 1 month 6 days, born 8 Aug 1886 in Kentucky, died 14 Sep 1951 at St. Joseph Hospital, Lexington, Fayette Co., Ky, usual residence Salt Lick, Bath Co., Ky, married, father Jim Benson, mother’s maiden name Elizabeth Craig, informant Tom Pergram, cause of death liver failure, burial in McCarty Cemetery, Salt Lick, Ky.
Her gravestone gives her birthdate as 7 Aug 1883. The 1900 census gave it as Aug 1887. The latter is probably correct, since her parents were married on 1 Sep 1886.
Notes for Thomas Jefferson & Maude Lee (Family)
Their gravestones look hand chiseled, which is unusual for the mid twentieth century.
