Notes
- -----------------
"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.)
