Contributed by Carroll Hurley Ullrich

He  was buried at Mudlick Cemetery, Paw Paw, Pike Co., Ky.  They may have shipped his body to Kelsa, Va. The certificate is incorrect in that his father's name was NEHEMIAH HURLEY, not James Hurley, Sr.  He sometimes was called James, or Jim Hurley, Jr., to distinguish him from his uncle Jim Hurley.  He was born 08 Jul 1886 in the same place where he was buried.  His mother's maiden name was Lena Coleman.  She was living at the time of his death.  Here's what he looked like just before he was admitted to hospital.
