Family/Spouse: Beulah Gibson. Beulah was born about 1906 in TN; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Leona's obit lists the children of John Marsee and Nancy Turner as her bros. and sisters These names appear on the 1930 Bell Co KY census.


Per Loretta Lovett, Leona first child died at birth or shortly after.

Note from Mary Brown...
Leona Lovett always wore dresses or skirts and blouses. She never wore
pants or slacks. She thought it was a sin to wear them. She was 5' 7" and
weight about 165 lbs. She had dark curly hair and blue eyes. A really
pretty lady. She was a hard worker, keeping house, gardening, and canning
the vegetables for her family. She made her own jams and jellies. She was
a good cook and seemed to enjoy doing it.
Every night she would tell us stories about the family. She believed
family history should be passed down from one generation to the next
generation. Most of her stories involved the Turner family. We used to
visit Middlesboro, Bell Co KY. She showed me where my Turner family were
buried...back to my 7th great-grandparents, John and Elizabeth Marsee
Turner. They are buried in the 'Old Turner Cemetery, on 34th street in
Middlesboro,KY. Across the street and back in the field...going
south...was where John and Elizabeth raised their family. Leona showed me
what was left of their home. There was only a foundation left, in 1950.
The foundation was built from field stones. You could still see part of
the path leading up to where their front door was. Someone had craved
inititials in some of the field stones. They were boy + girlfriend type
initials. In the field on some of the trees were these same type
initials. I can't remember the letters in the initials...so I don't know
if the initials were put there by John and Elizabeth's children...or
perhaps by other people... later on through the years after John and
Elizabeth died.

Died:
Leona R. Lovett,age 80, of Anco,Ky, passed away at Hazard ARH,Hazard. She was born Aug. 29 1904, the daughter of Ben Ridings and Nancy Turner. She was a member of the Anco Church of God.

She is survived by her husband,William "Willie" Lovett of Anco,two sons, Hubert Lovett of Texas, James Lovett of Anco, one brother, George Marssie, of TN,two sisters, Willie Lewis of Jackson, MI,Pauline Phillips of TN,seven grandchildren, and 13 great-grandchildren.

Funeral services were conducted Thursday,Jan. 24 at 2 PM,at Anco Church of God, Anco,with Rev. Lonnie Turner officiating,burial followed in the Carr Fork Cemetery, Little Carr.

Notes:

Grace Ridings Cupp was 5' 2" and weighed about 100 lbs. She had a small
bone frame. She had dark hair and blue eyes. She was a pretty lady. She
liked everything neat and clean around her. She had an eating problem.
She didn't want to gain any weight...and stayed skinny until she passed
away. Even people at normal weights looked fat to her. Right, wrong or in
the middle...in every situation... Aunt Grace was on my side of things.
She always showed me love and respect...and I'll always miss her.
________________________________________
Grady and Grace Ridings Cupp went on many camping and fishing trips. Aunt
Grace loved the camping...but hated the fishing. She couldn't stand the
smell of fish.
________________________________________
Aunt Grace died of cancer. She didn't go for check ups with her doctor.
Because of this...she lost her life. The cancer started in her uterus and
had spread into her pelvis bone by the time she visted her doctor. It was
too late for surgery.
