Rowan Co. Marriage Record book 6, p. 311, lists Roscoe Pettit, age 19, s/o John & Lissa Pettit, m. Cora Sublett, age 16, d/o Dave & Lizzie Sublett, on 24 Dec 1907, witnesses J.W. Fouch & D.D. Sublett.

I cannot find either Roscoe or Cora in the Social Security death index or the Kentucky death index. They probably moved to West Virginia, and did not receive Social Security benefits.
