Census
1900 census of Fleming Co., Ky, Mt. Carmel village, enumerated 19 June, lists on p. 13B as family #250/254:
Pollitt, Thomas, 60, b. Sep 1839, widowed, farmer; Coney, son, 29, b. Oct 1871, widowed; Frank, son, 28, b. Nov 1872; Commodore, son, 22, b. Oct 1877; Lina, dau, 25, single, b. Dec 1874; Nellie, dau, 12, b. Sep 1887; Nettie, granddau, 6, b. Nov 1893; Sarah E., granddau, 4, b. Sep 1895; Alvin, grandson, 2, b. Sep 1897. All born Ky Ky Ky.
The death certificate of Alvin identifies his mother as Lina. I do not have any solid evidence to the parents of Nettie or Sarah. One or both might be daughters of Coney, listed here as widowed. I am attaching them tentatively to Lina on the logic that if any of the grandchildren were children of Coney, he would probably have been moved down out of age order to come just before them.
