| 2. | Francis Arthur PUCKETT was born on 29 Mar 1866 in probably Washington, Highland Co., Ohio (son of Allen N. PUCKETT and Rebecca COURTNEY); died on 25 Feb 1951 in Orange County , California; was buried in Pioneer Cemetery, Modesto, Stanislaus County California Block 24, Lot 4 Grave 18. Notes:
It looks like Arthur is the Francis A. Puckett with social security # 548182436 who died in Orange Countu, California. This is where his sister Maryanne Hamilton and her children were living.
1900 Census has the family in Alliance, Red Willow, Nebraska
1930 Census has them in Kuna, Ada Co., Idaho

| 4. | Allen N. PUCKETT was born on 19 Feb 1833 in Bell, Ohio (son of Johnathan C. Puckett and Anna Campbell); died on 22 Aug 1921; was buried in Indianola Cemetery. Notes:
His name is listed as Alleniah A. Puckett on his son Jon's death certificate. Grandpa Asa Wolfe wrote it down as Allenias on the family photo. I have also seen people writing it as Allen N or Allen Nias.
On his homestead application in 1893, he wrote that he was 60 years old and wrote his name as Allen N Puckett.
According to Ina Wolfe, Allen Puckett was ostracized by his family after he chose to not become a priest.
According to Uncle John Wolfe,"I remember Dad (Asa Wolfe) telling about his granddad Puckett being a healer. He said he saw a man being carried into the Puckett parlor on a stretcher, and he walked out carrying the stretcher. He told
severalother stories in the same frame but not so vivid. There were secret words to transfer the healing power, to the eldest son of the eldest son. Every other generation skipped. Dad was not eligible --not a Puckett.
Do you (Ina Wolfe) remember stories of Dad relating to healing? H seemed reluctant to talk about such because we Moderns did not accept it. We rejected the wisdom of the ancients."
In the 1860 census, Allen is living with his 52 year old mother. It looks like an older married brother is living next door and a Courtney family living two doors down in the next page of the census.
On his homesteading application in 1893 he wrote his name as Allen N Puckett.
Allen married Rebecca COURTNEY on 13 Dec 1863 in Marshall, Highland Co., Ohio. Rebecca was born on 28 Feb 1838 in Marshall, Highland County, Ohio; died on Nov 11, 1905; was buried in Indianola Cemetery. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Parents are from Virginia
Notes:
Allenias or Allen Niah (Allen N.) Puckett of Bell, Ohio married Rebecca Courtney of Marshal, Ohio. The alleged family feud mad it difficult to trace his family.

| 6. | William W. Lemasters was born about 1841 in Ohio. Notes:
In the 1900 census for Alliance, Red Willow Co., Nebraska they also had a ward living with them - Leroy L. Premer, 7 years old. I see there is another family in Alliance sometimes called Parmer, sometimes called Premer.
There is also an Emeline Halfhil married to a Soloman Premer living nearby in Bartley, Nebraska. So, Leroy is probably William and Malina's nephew.
William married Malina Margaret Halfhil. Malina was born about 1945 in Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
