Susan,
Yes on descendant as Jerome G. Umberson would be my Great-Great-Grandfather. His son George W. is my G-Grandfather. The late Marvin Albert is my Grandfather.

I see from some notes I have exchanged with Joyce Bearden you two have exchanged data so I doubt I have anything new to you, and no I don't have a date on the separation. I am really confused on these Jerome facts because I have notes from Grandfather Marvin Albert that Jeromes wifes were #1 O. Savana (Kiker), #2 Elizabeth Kellum. Yet web R&D another says #1 was Elizabet, #2 was Jane Holding.

Send me your e-mail ID if you want and I'll send the full GED (excerpt below)by EDENNIS that I received from John Randall McIlhaney, Jr. My e-mail is BrianUmber@hotmail.com.

Have you visited the Gholson and Kellum Cemetary's ? I have some photos (including Elizabeths gravestone)I could scan and send if you haven't seen these.

Here the excerpt from his GED file that has some notes on this union:
1 NAME Jerome George /Umberson/
