Pat, I am looking for Millard F. "M.F." Hounshell's parents.He was born in Breathitt County abt. 1868.Here is what I have on him.
I have found a Millard F. Hounshell age 36 and widowed in 1910 Logan County, West Virginia and a son Fred age 15, they both are listed as coal miners. Both were born in Ky and their parents were born in Ky.So, I think this is the same M.F. Hounshell that was in Breathitt County.
I would appreciate info.

Generation No. 1
1.Millard Filmore1 Hounshell was born Abt. 1868 in BreathittCounty, Kentucky, and died January 12, 1947 in Fayette, Breathitt County, Kentucky.He married Surrena "Rena" Davis August 12, 1900 in Breathitt County, Kentucky,by C. W. I. Pugh, Minister at C.W.I. Pugh's,Wit:J. H. & James C. Pugh., daughter of Robert Davis and Rebecca Lovely.She was born Abt. 1868 in Breathitt County, Kentucky.
Notes for Surrena "Rena" Davis:
Serena Davis kept house for Silvester Howard after his wife, Manerva died.She is the mother of Kitty Howard.The story is that Serena was mean to the children, so Silvester ran her off and he raised Kitty.
Wendy Patton a gr gr grandaughter of Silvester's, said on Kitty (Howard) Patton's social security application that she put her mother as Rena Davis.
The only Rena "Serena" Davis in Breathitt County that I know of is Robert "Robin" & Rebecca (Lovely) Davis's daughter.Serena was the oldest child born to this couple.
Serena Davis, age 31 and third marriage,shows to have married M. F. Hounshell age 32 and second marriage, on 12 August 1900, Bk 8, Page 631, married by C. W. I. Pugh, Minister at C.W.I. Pugh's,Wit:J. H. & James C. Pugh.

On the 1900 Breathitt County census, **Surena says she gave birth to 3 children and 3 are living.They would be, Kitty Howard, Lizie Davis Carpenter and Sanford Davis.Also, Surena states that she was married for 10 years but I can find no evidence of that.
