Notes for John Anderson Peyton
Dates of birth and death are from his gravestone. I cannot find him in the Kentucky death records.
Notes for Mary Ann Stamper
Her death certificate records Mary Ann Peyton, age 1366 years 4 months 8 days, birthdate blank, died 6 June 1931 in Piercy precint, Rowan Co., farmer, married, born in Wolf Co., Ky, parent fields blank, cause of death suden death heart attact, informant John A. Peyton.
The age fields were apparently misinterpreted as the birthdate, and what appears to be 1366 is most likely meant to be 1866.
Notes for John Anderson & Mary Ann (Family)
I cannot find a marriage record for them in Morgan or Rowan counties.; they may have been married in Wolfe Co.
This is not intended to be a complete family group. They are in my database only to document the parents of Nannie Stamper who married Roy Foster and the grandparents of Nora Peyton who married Blaine Foster.
