----------------- "My grandmother Lillie Florence Jenkins is not mentioned ever living with Drayton and Rosalie that I can find. She is in early census records living with her sister Mala and her husband. You are correct on the death dates being switched on Drayton and Rosalie. Drayton had a heart attack and was found dead in some woods near his home. They are buried at Little Memorial Baptist Church Cemetery in Gaffney, SC. And are directly next to my grandparents. Joseph Graham Northey and Lillie Florence Jenkins Northey. ... Drayton and Rosalie lived in Blacksburg at the time of their deaths. ... I never met either of my great-grandparents or my grandmother Lillie. She died when my mom was 8. If you ever find anything about Rosalie, please let me know. She is just a total mystery. (She was a Harris before she married Drayton Jenkins.) -- Laura Parker, Ancestry Messaging to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 21 October 2018 ----------------- "I am confused about Lillie’s parents and hope someday to figure it out. Can’t figure out why she seemed to have been raised by her older sister unless that sister was her mother. ... As far as I have been able to determine, the Jenkins and Harris families were all from the area of Rutherford County NC. That is in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I found one will where a Jenkins (might have been a Harris) left a son his still and wine press so I guess they were mountainmen moonshiners!" -- Laura Parker, Ancestry Messaging to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 23 October 2018 Lillie Florence Jenkins Northey BIRTH 25 Apr 1888 South Carolina, USA DEATH 8 Mar 1924 (aged 35) Gaffney, Cherokee County, South Carolina, USA BURIAL Little Memorial Cemetery, East Gaffney, Cherokee County, South Carolina Parents: Drayton Jenkins 1850-1929 Rossie Jenkins 1848-1929 Joseph Graham Northey 1880-1966 (m. 1907) Siblings: Henry Thomas Jenkins 1880-1960 James Weldon Jenkins 1884-1937 Mallie M Gaffney 1874-1962 Created by Angela Holley 28 Jan 2010 -- Find A Grave Memorial 47251688, https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/47251688/lillie-florence-northey
