Submitted by: Peggy Russell meemawpeg7@gmail.com Additional Comments: Notice little Jesse's death date in his death notice and his tombstone is different. I decided to go with the death date in his death notice, hoping the date is correct. It is hard to make out the true number of 8 and 3, when the stone is so old. The only way to make sure is to check his tombstone. Breckinridge County Cemeteries, volume one, published in 1991: Ez (Ezra) CARMAN Cemetery #2 - Highway 1401, near Woodrow on Ova Drane's farm. CARMAN, Ezra July 15, 1854 -- __________. husband of Susan Susan SUTTON May 1, 1854 -- June 9, 1930 CARMAN, Jesse Oct 29, 1889 -- Jan 23, 1898 (should be 1899) Susan SUTTON is the daughter of Richard SUTTON and his first wife, Lucretia (her maiden name unknown to me). This information comes from my own family research. Peggy Russell This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/kyfiles/
