Jaggers in Hart Co KY
Need help with a Hart County Jaggers family. Some info: Ersie Jaggers (1914-1998) married King David Dennis about 1928-1930 and lived early on in Logsdon Valley. Her Obit was as follows:

I have been trying off and on for several years to identify Ersie's father and tie him in to other Jaggers families. In 1920 Census he was Bun Jaggers 37 , wife Lizza 35 and children Effy 14, William 12, Hannah 10, Evy 8, Ersie 5, and Catherine 2. They were living in the Rowletts Precinct at that time. I could not find this family in 1930 census. I found Ersie married to David Dennis and in Logsdon Valley and a Catherine Jaggers 12 as a Lodger in a home in Horse Cave area.
Anyone have know any more about this family? Any idea who the father of this "Barren" or "Bun" Jaggers was? (BTW I suspect he was one of several Jaggers named Bunyan after John Bunyan).
Thanks, Jim Cave
