Vera passed away about a year ago.
I have more on Castleberry and Pruet families, Pruet began with Obediah, the son of William.
So many thanks to you for sending such a wealth of Pruet family
information! Given this information, I feel sure you and my wife Vera share
a common greatgrandfather, Sanford Ellison Pruet.
Until receiving your information, the information belowwas all the direct
information I had (taken off the Internet) and it contained apparently some
errors or omissions. It calls Sanford Wilbourn Pruet "Sanford William
Pruet". His grave marker in Ashland calls him "Sanford Willie Pruet" and we
didn't know that the "Willie" could come form "Wilbourn" but likely so.
Incidentally,the nearby gravestone of Vera's little brother, who only
lived a week in Oct. of 1913, indicates his name was "Wilbourn Franklin
Pruet". I also had found information that Adeline Avery's marriage to
Sanford William/Wilbourn Pruet took place on October 18, 1882. Vera's
father's gravestone indicates his birth as " Nov. 7, 1887" and not l889, as
stated below. (Not only does it appear that it took five years for the birth
of their lst child, it's even odder that the first seven were boys and then
the last 4 were girls.)
