There may be mistakes in the information. The book list him as Rev. Charles Wesley Asberry 1850-1933. He was married to Catherine (Cathy) Bertran 1851-1918. It list the children as Jonathan 1871-1929 (married Mahala Cordelia Guinn 1869-1951), Morris 1875-1910 (first married Mary Jane Victory 1874-1905, second married Ann Guinn, Elza 1879-1954 (first married Lotana Duvall 1879-1909, second married Betty Ann Crouch 1875-1944), Joel F. born 1877 (married Ann Duvall), Lee Alexander, Shelby 1881-1940 (married Laura Asberry 1888-1957), George born 1884 (married Sarah Wooten born 1884), Lewis Frank (known as Big) born 1888, and a baby girl who died very young.
'Asburys in America' probably has mistakes, but it is a great reference for research.
I do know that Charles Wesley or William father is John Asbury and his mothers name was Malissa J. this I confirmed by searching the Census.
A little note of interest, my husbands grandfather was a brother to Charles William or Wesley, it took me about two years to find out anything about my husbands ancesters. The only thing we had to go by was his Aunt's bible. The bible listed him as Alex Asbury, my father-in-law John Oliver Asbury had his fathers name as Morris Asbury on his Social Security Application (my father-in-law could not read or write, and he was very young when his Dad died) It was only after ordering the Social-Security Applications of his Aunt Helen (who's name was Nancy Ellen but was listed as Helen on the SSA and was always known as Helen) and his Uncle William Morris Asberry that we found out that the fathers name was Ransom Alexander Asberry. Also, interesting to find out that Helen and William still had the Asberry spelling and their brother John's was Asbury. When searching there are many different things to take into account to determine if the information is right or not.
